Reply To: Ethanol in Petrol, engine coolant and tyre pressures

[David FaulknerParticipant]

1. As long as you have ‘ethanol safe’ fuel line then E10 should be fine, I didn’t notice any difference in performance in my ‘modern’ car whilst in France in May between any of the petrol available. Super 98 is still ethanol free as far as I have read, same as Premium BP and Shell in the UK (where the price difference is a bit of a rip off when compared to Europe)

2. I have Citroen Classics pre mixed Polypropolyene/Glycol coolant which has been in the car 5 years now, drained and reused several times so initially costs more but… http://shop.citroenclassics.co.uk/propylene-glycol–pre-mixed-coolant-5-litres-non-toxic-long-life-environmentally-friendly-928-p.asp

3. Tyre pressures can go up to around 26 psi due to the better modern construction of the Michelin X’s and it makes the parking easier without power steering 🙂
