So much information, what's a guy to do?
You should watch his windshield wiper comparison. Fun stuff. Dont take it too serious : )
So VMS suggests something to read and inform so you better understand the conflicting information out there, and you come back with windshield wipers.
Bottom line, oxygenated fuels are not going to harm your boat, motor, or tow vehicle any more or less than non-oxygenated as long as one stabilizes whichever one chooses. All marine manufacturers have built engines and boats designed to burn e10 for a couple decades. Same with your tow vehicle. Both fuel blends MUST be stabilized if the fuel is not going to be burned in a few weeks as the fuel breaks down very rapidly these days. Those are the facts. Use the fuel you like, but be informed in that process so you fully understand the results.
In my case, a couple decades of running e10 a LOT more than the average guy, and zero issues. The rip off artists selling 'ethanol treatment' snake oil have not made a dime from me. I ran engines from 50 to 250, in 2 and 4 stroke, followed the manufacturer's recommendation on additives... no issues.
Are you burning non oxygenated fuel in your tow vehicle? |
