I bought a lawn mower today.  The salesman tried to sell me on an extended warranty by telling me that ethanol is causing small engine failures.  I never buy extended warranties but a search of the web indicates that it may be truth.  Has anyone found this to be true and if so, what steps do you take to prevent it?
