I bought a 2018 Hyundai Elantra Sport a couple of weeks ago, and have been zipping around in it.
Got about 900 miles on it now.
Checked the oil today, smells like a fuel factory.
I have been putting 90 octane, ethanol-free Valero (a recommended Top-Tier branded) gasoline in it.
Does octane and/or ethanol levels play any role in dilution, or are they unrelated?
What steps can be taken to mitigate dilution?
The reason I like the higher octane and the ethanol free is supposedly they help prevent LSPI.
