jonc Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 As the title really. Looks like E10 petrol coming in next year. Higher ethanol content Will the Sup systems cope with this as I have heard it is really corrosive and eats seals for dinner. Europeans have been using it for a while but has anyone got any experience with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I would imagine you will need a compatible fuel pump, fuel lines and injectors to run it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Regular petrol now contains up to 5% of ethanol, however I think the advice is anything prior to 2002 (98% if supras then) is not to use it. I know the expense involved in running even E50 in a non compatible fuel system as it killed all my ASNU injectors from debris in the fuel system.

Boyne Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Imo e10 will be fine for the supra, I did run couple liters e85 back in day when it was available per tank never any issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 There is an Aussie site that goes through the car manufacturers models and E10 compatibility and with regard to the Supra they mention anything post May 1993 is compatible. Super unleaded is not affected so anyone running the expensive stuff will carry on as today. Apparently, those running with 95 fuel may benefit from a tune up to cater for a leaner burn with E10 fuel. Seeing a lot of us only do a few hundred miles a year moving to the Super stuff shouldn't be a major financial hardship. Aussie link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaijin Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 If you use super unleaded you won’t be using E10 : this is what an article I read said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
