E10 fuel

[calais24/7]

Just wondering if its safe to put that e10 **** into the vl, mines non turbo and its like the only thing all the servos sell in canberra nowadays. So yeah is it safe and will it affect it over time?

if you run e10 in your car it will stuff all the rubber seals ect in the fuel system dont use it

You should be fine to run it in a stocker.

Your wrong 10% ethanol won't damage the rubbers in your fuel system. There is plenty of info on the net about this. It's fine for a standard engine non turbo charged. 98 is a waste of money in a stock engine.

my 2 cents worth,
my vl sedan I had ran no different with no problems at all on the e10 fuel,
the vl wagon I drive now hates the sh!t and runs like there is water in the tank. it took me 3 wks to sort it out after I got the wagon.
here in Adelaide it is 2cents cheaper (and on some days the same price) than unleaded, so stuff it the savings aren't worth the hassle just like the "save 4c per litre shopper dockets" what a waste of paper.
I'm on the fence!

My experience it made my N/A run poorly. Now i can run no less then 98 premo in my vlt.
