Sounds like life is much less stressful in my gauge-less wrx. I just fill up and put my foot down

Been advised today that whatever the issue was, it is now resolved... Ethanol read 81 today.

p.s: I suspect it is the tank cleaning that took place in the first week of September to be what caused the ethanol content to drop over the weeks that followed...

Just a note , there is a reason bowser fuel is shit no matter where you get it and there is a reason race teams don't fill their cars up at servos . If you want consistency it comes in a barrel with testing to confirm its what your getting.

A giant tank in the ground pretty much unfiltered , vented to air run nearly dry and filled up all the time . Grab 20l can of race ethanol and compare it to 20l from a bowser in a jerry can run through the bowser by filtering it with filter paper .

Want consistency buy drum fuel .

It's a complete pain in the arse for me to get e85. One of the first things i'm going to do is get a 98 tune. E85 will be mainly for drag and track. How much does a 200L barrel of E85 delivered cost anyone know?
