    no it'll run fine on E10 but you may experience rotting of some of the rubber bits in the fuel system.

    If youve been running it on e10 on a regular basis you may find that this is the root cause of your problems and the rubber bits that have disintigrated after the filter have clogged the injectors, the strainer on the pump and may have taken out the pump.

    Yhea mate..have been running E10 since the first fill ....never had a problem ..but doing some research on the effects of it on Polymers ..it seems you might be on the money...see this new reverse thing made some sence after all ...

    OK ..Tank dropped and cleaned out (there wasnt much soot as such .)...New fuel pump in ...new fuel lines to the filter .....instant difference in the running ...but still just a touch of hesitation now and then..(when i say now an then , l mean twice in 5km stretch home from the little bro's place ..im assuming (not that l should)...that there will be a little settling going on ?........

    cheers
