Ethanol
Hey guys hows going?
I have a question that some of you would be able to help me with. In Australia the government has introduced a mandatory 10% ethanol blend on all unleaded fuel. I was wondering if using the unleaded petrol with 10% ethanol blend would harm my car. Its a 1993 Mrk4, non turbo. Any feedback would be appreciated. Cheers. |

Nothin to worry about. Here in the US they have been adding ethanol into fuel for years and has had no major effects on any vehicles.

Yes. It will actually be a cleaner burn at lower temps.
