For those experimentalists out there, apparently there is a way to "wash" ethanol out of your fuel.
It sounds crazy but supposedly it works.
You add straight water to your gasoline and allow the mixture to settle.
The water will attract the ethanol and then settle. You pump off the straight gasonline and for added safety filter through a moisture trapping filter.
Sounds like a lot of work to me, hi test is easier, at least for now.
As an aside, we the consumer are being ripped off by the gas companies with the addition of ethanol to our fuel. It burns more quickly than gasoline and has less power yhan gasoline. Its like buying a hamburger full of filler. Do you want filler or do you want meat?
We certainly don't pay less for ethanol blended fuels.
I did an experiment recently and calculated that Premium is actually similar in price to run as regular. If you figure out your average cost per KM for regular and then do the same for Super you will see what I mean.
The main difference I found was that Premium was higher in price but achieved way more km per tank than regular. Also, the engine is more responsive with plenty of power.
