Does ethanol-free not have that familiar gasoline smell?

dleroux,
Thank you for the data about Gasoline vs. Ethanol (E100) vs. Ethanol (E85).
The Petroleum Refinery Engineer was exactly correct. E100 has 33% less BTU compared to gasoline. E85 has 28% less BTU compared to gasoline.
The comparison in gallons of fuel makes it even more evident.
Diesel (1 gallon) = 137,381 BTUs. That amount does not take into account how a diesel engine is more efficient (more miles per gallon).
Mark.

Just a little side note here. I was looking through a you tube video posted on in the stovehuggers section. It was photos of old gas stations. As I was looking at them, one popped up that had a sign stating: Try Corn Alcohol Fuel, in small letters it said 10%. I guess it has been around longer than I thought. Was it just an experiment back then?
