      OP has written the price that way so it shows up as red. Ozbargain doesn’t make prices red unless it has a dollar sign in front of it.

    Liberty Yamanto, please open a servo at Taree NSW; increase local competition (long overdue); break the local petrol cartel, and give us some relief from the persistent 1.54 ULD 91 pricing theft. Thank you. Lol.

    If you really love your car do not fill e10 unless its a piece of junk.

    • +2

      Why?

    • +8

      Many new and older vehicle models effectively operate on petrol with up to 10% ethanol.

      Actually E10 can be used in about 90% of all petrol-driven cars used in Europe and in 99.7% of the petrol vehicles produced since 2010.

      If your car doesn't support E10 it's probably an old piece of junk.

    • How good are opinions.

      Many of the customers at the Liberty I work at wouldn't put anything else in their cars (even the V8 enthusiast mob put it in their cars and say it runs better with it).

      But hey; your opinion is the one that matters.

    • -2

      Sorry. My mistake as its not the same for all car users…shouldn't have said piece of junk lol have offended all the e10 users.

      Its only my experience from my both v6 engine cars in the past.

      -really cost me extra to repair the engine whenever I used E10 in the past but not anymore when I changed the petrol.
      -getting less mileage compared to premium unleaded
      -weak acceleration.

      Its only my experience not an advice for every car owner, if you have an expensive car you wouldn't risk putting contaminated e10 in it anyway.

      If E10 works for your car Good for you. ^_^

      Listed below are examples of problems and inconvenience that may occur from ethanol (alcohol) and contaminated E10 gas. (US taken)

      IMPORTANT: Most newer engines can run safely on E10 blends when gas is fresh and of high quality. Some engines are not designed for use of gasahol, and even following all precautions will cause damage. (Check your owner's manual for fuel recommendations).
      However, E10 damage is most often due to gasoline "contamination", and would not have occurred had the E10 fuel met all ASTM quality standards.

      E10 Contamination includes:
      Gas at time of purchase contained over 10% legal limit for alcohol, excess water and/or tank not properly cleaned and dry prior to switch to E10.

      Ethanol is a strong solvent and cleanser, and while small amounts will keep your engine clean, excess alcohol will wear down engine parts.
      Ethanol's water-absorbing qualities are most problematic, but can be managed when fuel is stored properly and replaced often.

      Ethanol Gasoline - General Problems/Issues:

      1. Water Absorption!
        Water Contamination (W/C) and Phase Separation (P/S) of gasoline;
        Ethanol attracts, absorbs and holds moisture in fuel tank with increased occurrence of lean, water-diluted fuel.
      2. Vapor lock or fuel starvation- Most common in carbureted engines, hot weather and/or at high altitude. (Ethanol increases gasoline's vapor pressure).
      3. Drop in octane (after water absorption, P/S and W/C occurs).
      4. Decreased fuel efficiency and mpg due to lower energy.
        E10 Reformulated Gasoline = 111,836 BTU/gallon. Non-ethanol Gasoline = 114,000 BTU/Gallon. (Diesel and Kerosene Jet Fuel have about 129,000 BTU/gal).
      5. Decreased life cycle of parts and engine.
      6. Decreased shelf life of gasoline.

      Engine/Parts Damage:

      1. Wear and damage of internal engine parts.
      2. Damage to metal, rubber, and plastic parts of fuel system.
      3. Corrosion of metal parts in fuel system and engine.
      4. Deterioration of elastomers and plastic parts.
      5. Deterioration of non-metallic materials.
      6. Fuel permeation through flexible fuel lines.
      7. Drying, softening, stretching and/or cracking of rubber hoses,
        seals and other rubber components.
      8. Oxygen sensor damage.
      9. Damage or premature disintegration of fuel pump.
      10. Carburetor damage, including clogging.
      11. Dirty and clogged fuel filters.
      12. Clogging and plugging of fuel injectors.
      13. Destruction of certain fiberglass fuel tanks.
      14. Removal or fading of paint and varnish (both internal and external parts of engine).
      15. Piston/bore failure through knock/pre-ignition.
      16. Piston ring sticking.
      17. Unsuitable ignition timing resulting in ignition failure.
      18. Gumming-up of fuel injectors, carburetors, etc. due to release of accumulated deposits in engine from ethanol alcohol's solvent properties.

      E10 Drivability Issues:

      1. Engine performance problems, often simply due to lower energy of ethanol-blends.
      2. Hard starting and operating difficulty.
      3. Hesitation and lack of acceleration.
      4. Stalling, especially at low speeds.

        And about 95% of the information is rubbish. You should be shopping for tin foil hats, not fuel.

        The problem in rebuking all of this garbage, is that it would take up too much time, effort and space.

        This is the easiest and simplest way all this diatribe can be countered. If E10 did as much damage to vehicles as you make out, fuel companies would be running into constant law suits and would halt the sale of the stuff. Why are they still selling it? Because it doesn’t do what you say.

        You need to go back to your conspiracy theory websites and circle jerk with the other tin foil hat wearing individuals over this massive cover up by petrochemical companies.

        Me? I’ll happily continue to fill all the work vehicles and all my private vehicles with E10, because I don’t need a special bib to go out in public.

        "Because me mate knew this guy, who has a friend who did a automotive pre-apprenticeship course, and he said E10 was (fropanity) shit…"

        "Did he say why it was shit?"

        "Nah, just said it was (fropanity) shit…"

        This is how I imagine most people who make daft comments about E10 got their information…

        • +1

          By who, do you have any evidence? Why would they sell it if it damaged your engine.

        • No it hasn’t. What a load of shite.

          Every time E10 gets mentioned on this site and comments like this “e10 breaks ya stuff” come out, it should just be auto translated into *autistic screeching*…

          At worst, you get slightly less km/litre.

          • @pegaxs: Guess your more of an engine expert then any in the reports, so you should write a blog explaining how it doesnt damage it, and get it published on Drive.com.au etc

            • +2

              @asa79: I am a mechanic/auto technician/whatever, (and have been for a long time) so I have a fair bit to do with cars every day. I have been running E10 in all our work vehicles and all of my private vehicles for 10+ years. So, yeah, I would say that I have a bit more to do with E10 fuels and engines that most users on here.

              Every time I read comments like yours or the other guy and his bullshit laden diatribe above, all I ever see is clueless people making comments on something they heard from a mate or read on some "conspiracy" website. People are generally afraid of things they don’t understand and will believe and regurgitate anything that supports their safe space cocoon.

              In all of my experience, readings, consultations with industry experts, chats with petro-chemical company reps, parts suppliers and automotive engineers, never have I come to the conclusion that the typical tin foil hat wearing clueless automotive forum commenter makes in their E10 claims.

              I understand that E10 has some "minor" draw backs, but the simple scrutiny is this, if E10 damaged vehicles at the rate clueless people made out that it did, fuel companies would be up to their eyeballs in law suits and E10 would cease to be sold. The fact is, they aren't and it isn't…

              And the reason I dont write a "blog" about it is because there is already so much information about it, that adding my "blog" to it would have little to no difference.
              And Drive? Christ, scraping the bottom of the barrel there?

                @pegaxs: So really what your saying is you dont have enough experience to know what it does.

                You probably working for the government trying to promote it as the best thing since sliced eggs

                • @asa79: I'm sorry, and your experience is?

                  Strawman much?

                  • -1

                    @pegaxs: Personality I don't really care. You just wrote too much for me to be bothered reading.

                    You just sounded like a flat earther, saying that the earth is flat when there is heaps of articles to prove you wrong

                    • @asa79: LOL… Right analogy, but you got it arse about.

                      You are here crying "flat earth" and then when people try to tell you it isn’t flat, you have your fingers in your ears and just yell "I'm not listening… lah lah lah…"

                      So be it. I can only bring the horses to the water. It's up to them to drink.

                        @pegaxs: I dont see anyone else saying that E10 is good except for the government that is promoting it

                        • @asa79: That's because you are only reading what you want to read. That is called "cherry picking". This leads to "confirmation bias".

                          Favourite quotes from the 3 sites you posted earlier… (These are YOUR sites on how bad E10 is. You should read links before you post them.)

                          Most newer engines can run safely on E10 blends when gas is fresh and of high quality. However, E10 damage is most often due to gasoline "contamination", and would not have occurred had the E10 fuel met all ASTM quality standards.
                          List update in progress 2009 (fuel-testers site)

                          Can safely run on E10 and damage is due to contamination, NOT the E10 itself. And good to see you have relevant, up to date data.

                          While a car not designed to run on E10 will likely not suffer engine damage

                          Drive article goes on about comparing E10 to 91 Regular, when it's more closely related to 95 Premium. Great journalism.

                          Holden Jackaroo where there was corrosion in the fuel tank and fuel pump and the carburettor was blocked. (15th Feb 2012 6:01 PM <- So up to date)

                          An article using irrelevant vehicles. An old Jackaroo with a steel tank and carburettor would not be compatible with E10. So the idiot there was the Jackaroo owner. And they are quoting a mechanic that says "put Premium in it, that will fix it" who obviously has no clues what the difference is between 91 and 98 fuels. (I'll give you a hint, they both have the same energy density. So, putting 98 in a Jackaroo would have NO benefit)

                          • @pegaxs: That was just 3 sites that came up on the top of the google search when you put in "E10 engine" in google. You can google some other sites if you want

                            • @asa79: So, you posted 3 sources that didn’t back up your comments, and now you want me to do your homework?

                              You just googled “E10 engine” and pasted the top three results. Lol. :D No vetting, no researching, no cross referencing. No reading either, apparently. Just 3 links, that will do.

                              Can see you would make an excellent journalist for Drive. ;)

                • @asa79: ASA: Bruh you have no experience don't talk.

                  Pegaxs: Yes I do.

                  ASA: Yeah but nah.
