Yes, cars can run on pure ethanol as a fuel source. Ethanol is a renewable and environmentally friendly alternative to gasoline, and many vehicles are designed to run on ethanol blends such as E85, which contains 85 ethanol and 15 gasoline. However, some vehicles may require modifications to run on pure ethanol.

Does gasoline with ethanol gum up a carburetor?

Pure ethanol will not gum up a carburetor. However in high concentrations it will disolve or corrode anything in the fuel system that is not chemically compatible, especially at higher temperatures. Disolved contaminates will go right through a fuel filter and can gum up a carburetor as the ethanol vaporizes and they come out of solution.
