E10 is blamed for a few things - like the 1982/83 Nissan fuel injector castings leaking, 1985-87 Ford fuel injector seals rotting, My Goldwing fuel pump ruined, carbs needing rebuild with a couple new material seals. 1990 or thereabout vehicles sold here were supposed to be able to use E10, prior to that was possible problems- Harley says prior to 1987 or so for start using E10. The small engine shops around here in Madison have a lot of business fixing the E10 problems in weedeaters, snow blowers, chainsaws, outboards - local bulletins warning of E10 problems for some brands and years posted on shop walls- Farm and Fleet small engine dept has copies posted for customers to read next to work orders and warantee policy. Auto parts store has fuel pump catalogs noting E10 replacement pump numbers for some vehicles- the OEM replacements are marked not waranteed for E10 use while the E10 certified units are. I was involved a bit as driver for the Cenex E10 tests in late 1970s- warnings of fouled filters in GM definite and experienced. Av gas may not be best choice but beats E10 for 2 stroke small engine equipment running steady. Alternative now around Madison is the straight premium gas- recommended by some of the new equipment makers and strongly advised for all the older engines not specified as E10 capable. The old engines are out of warantee now but some of the makers don"t like bad reputation given them by use of unrecommended fuel. Couple 2 stroke oils noted designed to be used with E10- I think Amsoil has a product and Stihl has a part number oil specified for use with E10 mix"s. RN
