Title: E10
Post by: Nick on Saturday, 11 May 2019, 05:08 PM
Just got my injectors back from injectortune, very good service, new filters, new 0 rings, report on before and after, would recomend them. So that's new tank, pump and filters. All full of rust from the ethanol that's put in our petrol. Tank will come off for the winter in future. Thinking of running Putoline E10 fuel fighter in the system while riding. Just like to know your thoughts on this, does anyone else use it?. Thanks nick.

Do all your fuels have ethanol?

All petrol in the UK has at least 5% (E5) ethanol except Esso super unleaded, we haven't gone over to 10% (E10) yet.

All petrols here in Finland contain ethanol 5 or 10%, Shell's V-power even more.
I fill tank to the top for the winter, add some fuel stabilizer and some two stroke oil ( about 0.5-1% ) against rust.
No any rust yet in K2 tank.
