  • I tested the ethanol content of local E10 petrol and got a pleasant surprise.
    If anyone else has had similar results please feel free to make it known in the comments.

    Weighing fluids could be best method

      I guess it is just easier to do liquids by volume.
      Years ago I was deputised by UK Customs & Excise to do spirit accounting. Blending raw alcohol and water also requires the temperatures to be taken into account as well as the proportion of water already in the spirit (unless it is pure alcohol, of course) so is even more complicated than just the proportions by volume of the two liquids.

    Happy days.
    I wouldn't put E10 in my lawnmower.
    I pay the extra for my 2 cars which are 21 and 24 years old.

      I bought some more and it is E0 too. I have been removing the ethanol from petrol for years for use in my old two stroke bike - it is happy enough with the reduction in octane rating as it is fairly low compression. However, I will use this stuff in everything as long as I can get it.

      @@mrpingen likely 99 has not been selling so well.
      Dump it in the E10 tank to move it on.
      I paid £1.46ltr for 99.
      Only do 5k miles a year so keeping the tyres inflated and brakes not binding makes the biggest difference.
