that's basically ethanol blended fuel right? Those older engines might not like it.


U tell me, I can get it ace hardware, 1 quart, half a tank of gas and I'm good ta go.....
Does the 1.6 liter engine handle it long enough 2 pass or does it melt?

Yes it works. I  have done this before.  Your cat is probably not working at 100% efficiency and thus you failed.
