E10 Ethanol, bad for your engine & economy? [MERGED]

[aejhayl17]

Is XCS the equivalent of Velocity??? I don't even know if the gasoline boys in our area are aware if the XCS sold in their station are blended with E10 or not.

Why are the making our lives so difficult I wish they culd just take back that biofuels act!!!

XCS is super premium of shell and i believe that it is not e10 blended, the equivalent of Velocity or VPower nowadays is the Petron Blaze which is not e10 blended confirmed by Petron.

XCS VS vortex gold VS super premium
Velocity or V power is VS Blaze (no cunterpart with caltex)
Xtra unleaded VS Vortex silver VS Super premium

if there is no stiker on top of the pump indicating E10 then it is not E10.
They can not take it back coz the congressmans that passed the act is already paid.. you know what i mean.

Silver - Unleaded
Gold - Premium
Vortex - 96 RON (Prev. equiv. to V-Power and Blaze)

Wala na ba yung Vortex?

Filled up with Petron XCS this morning. I think there's a slight difference in acceleration, and moderate difference in economy compared to Xtra E10. I didn't have to mash the accelerator as hard as I did with E10. But that could be psychological.

same petron experience here with my honda jazz. i used to get unleaded and then tried the new e10 variant for a while; wasn't happy so i went back to regular unleaded. when the law passed to have ALL unleaded with e10, after a few tanks, i noticed that my car became sluggish with similar performance to the old e10. just this morning, filled up with xcs and drove to the airport. almost immediately, ramdam agad yung difference ng hindi e10. of course, the 95 rating though would some effect as well (obvious difference between non-e10 xtra unleaded and xcs before), but the point is obvious. bottomline for me: e10 sucks.

baka psychological lang? hehehe

anyways, balang araw di na naten matatakbuhan ang e10! by 2011, all pumps will sell gas with e10.

worse case scenario! wala ng gagamit ng mga kotse nila by 2011 lahat naka bike or naglalakad hehehe or nakasakay sa kabayo sorry ot



habang maaga dapat maiboycot na ang e10 na yan!

Hindi naman siguro aabot sa ganon...matatanggal din naman si Angelo Reyes sa DoE.

[flashtrader]

nakakatakot pala mag fillup ng E10 kung ganon. Medyo luma pa naman JDM D15B non VTEC and PGM-FI pa naman ito, so balik na lang kaya ako sa Petron XCS ?

Any thoughts guys?

If ethanol gas can damage our cars, then what fuel are we supposed to use when all fuel are ethanol blend already?

Since you're asking...

Auto-LPG. Advantage, it is cheaper than gasoline and better for the environment.
