Ok so I thought I would try a bit of an experiment with my trip down to Ottawa and back. (550 KM's of driving each way)
I filled up with 100% Ethanol Free Shell V-Power for a couple of tanks before the full tank I left with so that I was sure there wasn't any Ethanol fuel in my tank for the trip.
I made it there using 3/4 Tank of fuel. The wind was calm and I kept a steady cruise control pace all the way with no passing or stopping so as to not skew the numbers for this test.
When I arrived I filled up with E-10 Shell and did so for the next tank I needed while there. I then filled up today with E-10 Shell and left for home keeping the same speed and with the same weather etc.
I made it home with more than 3/4 of a tank.
Now sure it's very close, but one would think that the E-10 should offer less mileage than the 0 Ethanol fuel no?
