My owners manual states not to use fuel with greater ethanol content than E10.
I plan on filling up with 8 gallons of E15, driving over to the ethanol free pump, and adding 4 gallons of that when the changeover happens.
Becomes E10 at that point I assume (12 gallons containing 1.2 gallons of ethanol)
It seems like a pretty simple safeguard, and only cost a couple of extra bucks.
Anyone have any reasons why this wouldn’t be a good idea?
The percentages work, but I'm curious - what make, model, year do you have? No straight E10 where you live?
2017 Outback 2.5L. I’m in New York State, they have been given authorization to implement a bad idea beginning today…so I’m surprised it didn’t change over yesterday.
aren't there additives you can put in gasohol to make it "safer"?
