E10 fuel is thought to be a bigger risk to older vehicles regarding the effect E10 fuel has on the rubber components of theur fuel system.

Absolute "non-story"" Just rehashing all the doom & gloom that we've all read umpteen times. And badly written and edited:

Quote: " They warned fuel lines may "perish" which could cause petrol to "overflow" back into the fuel tank."

What?

Indeed. What the actual f**k are they on about?
And as for "In such an event, fuel could leak and come into contact with the engine, which is an ignition source, and cause smoke."
I'm guessing it was written by some work-experience kid.:whistle:

I've been waiting for all the reports from MOT stations reporting all of the fuel leaks springing out.
