Default Bio-Ethanol Fuel.....

which has a higher octane rating than V Power etc (and the local stockist is Crowborough), does anyone us it or have any views on it?
Scoobynet has a big thread going on this (which i havent read yet), but did read about this in a Jap mag a couple of months ago which did sound impressive.

Default Re: Bio-Ethanol Fuel.....

i started to read got board lol 9 pages long lol

but very good results
E85 is 109 Octane and beautiful to run in mine. Obviously it is mapped for it but a recent before and after showed 490 bhp on tesco 99 and 545bhp on tesco 99 + 20% E85.

my only concern would be mixing the fuel up,not quite as easy as pulling up to the pump and waiting for the click
