[QUOTE="NigelDenham, post: 631074, member: 32435"] I looked into this a while back as I have classic bikes, and heard ethanol actually degrades and disintegrates zinc-alloy (which My Amal carbs are made of. Apparently the Esso supreme? E5 is best, in most parts of the country it actually contains only trace amounts of ethanol. The e5 or e10 designation is the maximum ethanol it contains so I’m told. I have seen what ethanol can do to older fuel lines and glass fibre petrol tanks, not pretty. [/QUOTE]
