Fuel systems pre- mid-'90's can't tolerate it. Their seal & o-ring material will start to leak. Cheers, Glenn

the government website advises us to use super unleaded which will be 5% ethanol. most of our cars run fairly well on this. Of course its carrying higher taxes and therefor approx 10% higher pump prices. its only a matter of time before we are reduced to electric or nothing!!!!!!
