    lol @:

    1. the mustache on that guy from myth busters
    2. the term "E-Mechanics"

    I hate the idea oil companies can just buy out and boycott more efficient and productive fuels. What ever happened to the electric car? There was some doco called "who killed the electric car?" I should really watch.

    some interesting 'facts' http://www.friendsofethanol.com/facts.html

    U need to be careful when using E10 in a 95RON engine, most E10 is under 95RON, so it could causing pinging or even engine damage.

    Do what I do, get half a tank of E10 mixed with half 98RON lol

    Why are E10 95 RON fuels below the actual 95 RON rating? If they were, they wouldn't be labelled 95 RON.

    Why waste your time mixing half and half? Just go full 98 or full non-ethanol 95.

    BTW, check out the Sydney Euro meet thread in Upcoming events.

    Wouldn't you be better getting the PULP (95) ??

    The amount you save from combing the 2 would be about the same :S

    couple of dollars is not going to make much difference.

    From the Mobil site:
    "The octane in Mobil E10 Unleaded is typically above 93 RON"

    The Euro engine needs at least 95RON.

    Why do I mix?

    - to ensure the fuel is at least 95RON
    - the car runs smooth on ethanol
    - the cleaning agents in 98RON are better than 95RON
    - Overall cheaper than plain 95RON

    Go use BP's 95 RON ethanol blend. That is advertised as a 95 RON.
