I used e10 and it ran fine. no dramas

it comes down to if you are willing to test the claims from different sources

I'm using bp ultimate now tho on my engine with supposed slightly higher compression.
and it's summer

I have been using it in My VY HSV R8 now for over 2 years. Its clocked up 60,000 on it and its all I ever put in it. You cannot tell any loss of power. It also goes in the wifes Pulsar, been going in that for 3 years. Neither car has had any issues at all with using that fuel. As a few guys stated, its 10%

This car has been using alky for 3 yrs as well, %100 alky and all the doom and gloom told me the carb would dissolve as well as the tank and lines etc etc. Their isnt a mark inside the fuel bowls, or the tank.

I have had a lot of cars come into the shop with burnt valves.
they bring them in because of a miss which is normally just the plug leads these days.
But after further inspection , they have lost compression.
A laser, Holden Astra and a Mazda.with between 100.000Ks and 230.000Ks on them.
I haven't seen cars with valve wear for years.

😂🤪😂🤪😂
car forums. where a lot of peoples good intentions end up taking a good old car off the road forever never ever to see the road again. 🥲
