I imagine a lot of people will say it’s snake oil similar to a lot of the other oil additives?

I use Briggs & Stratton Fuel Fit which is meant to keep the fuel fresh for 3 years in any of the engines I don't use regularly

Maybe not related to E10 but since we have been running our Polo on E10 the fuel pump sounded noisy recently failing. The car has done 80,000 + but the various web sites said it was compatible to E10.

It actually says ‘informative’ which is the way it should be read if you thought the post gave good information

Certain rubbers and plastics can break down with higher ethanol fuels. But any vehicle built in the past 20 years would have avoided those materials because high ethanol petrol has been used in a of countries around the world for a long time.

Also, for those vehicles that do have susceptible bits of their fuel system, is there any evidence that this stuff actually makes a difference? I note that it doesn't say it inhibits the attack on plastics and rubber?

I used to put posh petrol in Bertie<<<<<now i only put cheap stuff in. I have some stuff to mix in if i am forced to put that damaging stuff in to make it ok.

Ditto. And it works.

If it's the ethanol that attacks seals I can't see how anything as a very low concentration additive could make much difference.

Cataclean do lots of products to help this as well.

Interesting. I wonder how it removes or neutralises the ethanol…….

Maybe it's the snake oil element in it.
