Ethanol blend ok
THERE is no problem with that, but I would be concerned if the blend changed to 20 per cent or higher.

What's a good first car for a son?
WITH $3000, your son shouldn't be choosy. Cast a wider net and search for the best car you can find for the money. It's better to have a car in good condition, though it might not be a cool choice. That might sound boring, but he'll get better service out of a car in tiptop shape than one that might have a better image but is run down.

Rust bucket
THE possibilities are endless. Burning it comes to mind. But seriously, I'd suggest you take it to a scrap-metal merchant. However, they probably wouldn't accept it. Perhaps, if there is anything of value still on it, you could remove it and try selling the rest as spare parts. If rust has extensively taken hold, the only thing to do is get rid of the car. Convince your friend to buy another.

Save my spark
THERE could be a number of reasons for your problem, Paul, and as you've tried many fixes I'd suggest you go back to basics. Make sure all the settings are correct as per the specifications, then concentrate on the oil side as it seems likely that its oiling the plugs. It seems to do it so quickly that I would expect to see some smoke from the exhaust and some loss of oil as measured on the dip stick. Check the compression to see if there's been any drop, check valve-stem seals for any leakage. It doesn't seem likely that it's a fuel problem since you've switched fuels and still have the problem. Using hotter spark plugs might help, but that's treating the symptoms and not the problem.
