I've read most of the fuel links. Thanks. I get that Ethanol is false economy & 95+ is good for the engine & maybe performance.
With the WS, many said 91 RON was just as good, probably because the tweaked engine adjusts on the fly so no pinging, etc. Uunfortunately, 91RON is on the way out, hard to find in Sydney, to be phased out by mid next year. So the choice is now E10 vs 95/98. No contest you say, but 12c a litre is $150+ a year. I know I know, I've just paid 21.5k, etc. How could I even think it. I'm just wondering whether the engine tweaks that make a WS Zetec happier than earlier Fiestas on 91 might also make it run well on E10. Any views? Philosophically, I'm uneasy about E10 because I don't like the idea of plants being grown to feed cars. |
