E10 petrol

[Rc stoner]

Hi guy will the new e10 petrol be compatible with our 2 stroke engines alot of people getting worried about their normal car engines in the UK

 

[RcJunkie13]

Well that’s basically regular pump gas here in NY, so yeah, you’ll be fine

 

[Seandonato73]

He's it will be fine, hasn't been an engine maker who's engines arnt e-10 rated in 10+ years.

I use regular fuel
Never tried e10 in anything
Its got a bad rep for car engines down here in Oz

 

[Rep732]

I have to say boats suffer the worst since their surrounded by water and the 10% alcohol in it wants to attract the water.. land vehicles do pretty good its when the fuel sits for months then thats where issues start to pop up

It's all I've ever ran on my rigs and never had any ethanol issues

It's getting released in the UK soon but I've only read bad things about it

 

[MonsterAir]

What were you guys running over there before the e10?

 

[Rep732]

I run ethanol free fuel don't want any issues

 

[DougStar]

+1 i use 91 all round

I run ethanol free fuel don't want any issues

 

[Rep732]

Here in the states you have to go out of your way for e-free gas. Thats why I stick with the tru fuel plus it has a different smell when it burns. I like it

 

[DougStar]

At the pumps here we get 91 ,95 ,98
91 is the only e free

Stop using your rig as a bong

Ahh thats nice to have... here every octane level is laced with the poop

Yeah sucks. Only nice part is if it's something your using regularly it's not really an issue. Biggest issue when it first came out was the fuel filter and fuel line issues. The ethonal acts like a fuel system deep clean, it removes the varnish and gum from the tank and lines. Once it's around for a couple years you'll get used to adding fuel stabilizer and won't have a ton of issues.

What if you ran one of these on E85?

I (sort of) have . On the 70cc. It's a proper female dog to start cold. It also is like methanol and you'll need all alcohol resistant seals. It also like methanol in the fact that it attracts moisture and will destroy your engine if you don't purge it after every run . There is power gains to be had but it isn't worth it unless your racing. Like methanol. And with all the bullshit that e85 brings I'd just do methanol at that point.

Not to mention getting it is annoying
Cam2 is pretty good

not too hard to find round here, but not worth it either way.
