Here in Florida all the fuel has some ethanol mixed in....they say up to 10%.
I've noted no ill effects on my WBX except a drop in fuel economy, from 18-19 to 17. �And since the 10% alcohol is only supposed to drop fuel economy 2%, then either it affects the WBX more or part of it is an aging motor.�

Is this ethanol added to fuel going to cause problems with my "new" Westy?

Is there anything to be done to mitigate it if it's a problem?

Thanks,
