E10 fuel is now firmly established as normal unleaded petrol in all Service Stations and Supermarket Service Stations.
This new E10 fuel is blended with up to 10% renewable ethanol, previously unleaded fuel was only 5%.
Ethanol increases engine deposits and affects the way the car performs, which leads to corrosion and the corrosive formulation leads to deposits which can affect engine efficiency and durability. E10 is a less stable fuel and deteriorates much quicker in the fuel tank.
This can affect the running of the engine and can make starting more difficult if the vehicle is left for any period of time. The new fuel is being reported that drivers may experience a lower fuel economy and a little rough running.
Vehicles registered before 2002 are particularly at risk and a proportion of vehicles registered up to 2011 could be affected. The effects on the vehicles will be very different depending on the driving styles, how often you fill up, how often the car is driven, whether you use Supermarket fuel.
The Specialist E10 Protector from Wynn’s and sold by skinnytree.co.uk is specifically developed to prevent the problem of corrosion, whilst also cleaning and reducing friction ensuring maximum efficiency from your engine. Can be used in all Petrol engines including vehicles fitted with catalytic convertors and Hybrid vehicles.
The new E10 fuel is particularly harmful to hoses, metal engine parts, fuel lines and injectors. Deposits build up on the injectors causing incomplete fuel reaching the combustion area affecting the efficiency of the engine.
Inject some life back into your injectors
So how do we make sure that the injectors and combustion area of the vehicle is kept clean and free running.? Along side using the Wynn’s Specialist E10 Protector 250ml in the fuel we recommend using Wynn’s Injector Cleaner For Petrol Engines 325ml.
Wynn’s Injector Cleaner For Petrol Engines 325ml cleans injectors and pump, and prevents deposits forming on the valves in the intake manifold and in the combustion chamber. It restores injector spray patters back to new. We recommend that you use a bottle of Injector cleaner every 6000 miles or 6 months.
Injector cleaner should be used if you experience, unstable idling, high fuel consumption, engine oil degradation or engine failure with injector fault code showing.
