wonder if Ethanol based fuels would have an effect in the fuel lines of xtys in the long run.

more than a year of using it and don't have problems with my non fuel injected corolla.
you should try to read/research more. there are some sectors trying to demonize ethanol. it attracts water daw which we all know is bad for the engine's metal parts. also it provides only 50% of fossil fuel power so it takes twice as much ethanol to get the same power using fossil fuel.
as far as i am concerned i get the same power from e10 and a little better mileage. i'm happy. not sure about rust build up but i'm sure if your engine is properly maintained this should not be a problem in the near future, say about 10 or 15 years.
the comments/observations above hold true for both my xtrail and corolla. |

| hi! i would just like to double check if e10 is compatible with xtrail. i read that it's doing good on your ride, so it;s safe to say thati can fill my xtrail with e10? can i mix it with regular gasoline incase i'm running low on fuel? thanks! |
