Actually Id really like to know this too. If a car is setup for 87 OCT, (say a Honda civic, 2000 model D16), then what happens to fuel mileage when that 87now has 10% ethanol. How much does your fuel mileage drop? Is there a significant difference?
If E85 nets you a 7 percent less mileage reading (according to the EPA) than 100% gas, does the 10% being added to our gas now make any real diffrence, or is it our heads?
