E-10 ethanol/Petrol
Just had a look at the flashpoint of these two liquids.Flash point of petrol= -45F. Flashpoint of Ethanol = over 60 degrees.Wonder what effect this will have on the starting ability of our motors will be in a really cold winter? My guess is that it will take longer, and if your battery is not in tip top condition, perhaps not atall. On the other hand, will this mean that our engines will run cooler? Can not wait to find out.Filled mine up today with half a tank of the E10 because my tank was half full with E5. Does that make it E7.5?
