Fuel

[Daniel Peden]

Just a question that came to mind today. Has anyone had a chance to use ethinol free fuel in there 9th gens?
There is a fuel station near my appartment that has ethinol free fuel and I try to use it because I can see an increase in fuel mileage in my FB2 R18.

You should see an improvement how much?? Hard to say. The short answer is that fuel with a higher percentage of ethanol has less BTU's per pound than "100%" gasoline. I saw a noticeable increase in fuel economy in my CR-V when I used fuel with less ethanol - was worth the difference in cost.
