WARNING PETRON XCS has E10

Nag karga kami ng gas kagabi. Hindi pa nga alam ng gas boy na may E10 na ang XCS nila. Tinuro pa namin sa kanya ang sticker.

Pero, yung Blaze wala pang nakalagay na E10 sticker. (P49.60 a liter)
Same w/ Caltex Gold.... now w/ E10.

What?, too bad...
Is it ok to mix gas to gas with e10?

let's say i still have like .5 liters of Caltex gold, can I mix it with blaze?

I just went to petron in Boni circle mandaluyong and I asked the Gasoline boy if there is e10 on their xcs

He told me that they are just putting the sticker but the gas still does not have e10.

still I refilled my gastank with blaze.

There's a big difference in performance though..better! yet expensive..

Bio fuel corrodes our engine especially on our piston.

Well at least that's what I know of...

hi guys

anyone can confirm if E10 really damages our carb/fuel hose?

been using caltex gold and petron xcs and other gasolines
regardless of e10.

onetime, when traveling davao to gensan.
i suddenly realized my carb is not functioning well
from idle to 1/4 its like my bike needs more fuel.

so i stop a the nearest gas station,
open up my carb and checked..
then i realized it has small tiny bits of black substance
in the float bowl... its the one causing fuel starvation.
on my pilot jet.. so i cleaned it up and its perfectly working well..
also theres a about half a teaspoon of water also on it..

my questions is how come theres dirt (somewhat like rubber)
in my floatbowl wherein i have a fuel filter mod between tank and carb?

then i realized maybe because of e10! hahaha!
nevermind... almost all gas have e10 now...
we cant avoid it.
hoping my yosi carb wont melt after several years of using e10 :) hahaha
so for now, i will avoid e10 as much as possible...

I think it's because the solution of alcohol mixed with gasoline clogs up in the carb and/or corrodes the piston.

if you search in google there are some reports that e10 is the culprit of malfunctions of lawnmower, chainsaws..etc..(which has carburators)

here's a link we can read on..well it is more related to cars though but at least we have an idea?
