10% enthonal

How much does the winter blended fuel, I think it's 10% enthonal affect BLM's ? in fact, I think now it's being used all year long.

It will change the Long Term Fuel trim about 3-4% which means the BLM will rise from 128 to about 132.

Best to measure what the E content of the fuel is. I have found that it varies considerably. Otherwise you can be chasing BLM's all over the place.

Re: 10% enthonal

How do you measure the ethanol content of fuel? I'm pretty sure ALL of our Indiana gasoline is E10 anymore because I can't get the mileage numbers I used to no matter what I try in my daily driver.
