    There should be no issue. The 10% ethanol in E10 will just act as an octane booster. That much ethanol is not enough to corrode your engine from the inside (unlike what E80 will do).

    agree. the 10% alcohol is just like an additive and the amount is too small to corrode your car's internals.

    come to think of it. ang ginebra san miguel (gin) is more than 80% alcohol diba? and people still drink it? hehehehehe. para ka na rin palang uminom nun ng E80. hehehehe.

    Slightly OT:
    As far as I know, ethanol is the only edible alcohol around. So okey lang yan. ;)

    Of course, "edible" doesn't mean you can guzzle it as if there's no tomorrow...as evidenced by the hundreds of American college people who die by alcohol poisoning after a heavy booze party.

    Then again, if you do guzzle it as if there's no tomorrow...there will be no tomorrow for you! Hehehe :p
