Hey guys, just bought my Si coupe 2 week’s ago and’ve been running shell 92 E10 so far. I know that modern engines are designed to run on this gas but just wanted to get some input from other people. I have a station that dispenses unbranded 92 ethanol free but it's just a little out of the way from me. Do you guys think E10 will have negative impact on our little L15B7 motors in the long run? Is the E0 gas worth the trip? What do you guys think?
A few things to consider about ethanol:
-E10 only has a shelf life of 3 months
-Ethanol gas can absorb 50 times more water than conventional gas.
-3.8 teaspoons of water per gallon of E10 can cause phase separation meaning a layer of 2 liquids is visible.
