    There's a TSB somewhere which recommends against ethanol because of problems it causes with components of the fuel gauge sender unit....

    Also, ethanol is a bit of a rip off simply for the fact that its calorific (energy) value per gm. is siginificantly less than the equivalent mass of hydrocarbon mix served up as ULP...so one uses more to get the same energy output... AND it's a resource hog for water in production...

    Ethanol is for drinking...remember, the liver is evil...it must be punished

    Upon my questioning Landrover re ethanol in fuel I received written confirmation from them that my RRC could run on ethanol blend up to 10% with out damage but that Landrover did not recommend any ethanol blend ratio over 10%.
