[QUOTE="sparkywig, post: 630349, member: 3541"] I think it may be coincidence, when was the last time you checked fuel filters, fuel pipes, float levels, etc? There's lots of misinformation and myths around ethanol in petrol. Plenty of people run E10 in classic vehicles with no problems, especially when you consider that it was first introduced in 2008. It's only when you store them unused for a long time that you may get some issues. Extended storage without proper treatment or overuse of certain additives may help deterioration of some parts of the fuel system. All modern fuels, whether they contain ethanol or not, have a short shelf life. Many manufacturers recommend that fuel is stored for no longer than 30-60 days unless a stabilizer is used. [/QUOTE]
