Advice is do not use Petrol containing Ethanol.

Oddjob:
Do not use fuel containing ethanol?????


Does he not know that is almost impossible, sure you can find ethanol fuel but if you're out on a ride that's not always possible, you take what you can find sometimes.

Mikep328:
I haven't used any fuel OTHER than "normal" ethanol since ethanol became standard in fuel.  Never have made any attempt to find non-ethanol fuel for any vehicle.  Have had no issues whatsoever with ethanol fuel.  I have had that fuel in motorcycle tanks stored for over two years with StaBil added before storage and the motos started as if they had been running yesterday.  I didn't intend for the motos to not be ridden for two years but it just worked out that way!  ;)  Ethanol fuel has worked just fine in engines from 60's US Muscle Cars to current cars/motos.  In my experience, worrying about ethanol fuel is right up there with worrying about getting attacked by a shark...in Kansas or while sitting in a pub in Cheddar!.  ::)
