    Urs4 conversion to E10?

    Hi

    Belgium announced 1/1/2017 Octane 95 will be changed in E10 fuel...A 92 S4 isn't able to deal with that i think?
    Oh before some one says put in Octance 98 yes ok but i life here pretty long and probably they say after 1year we consume to much 98. Next year we ban it

    -Can the engine handle it? Stock Ecu now it's only 4% Ethanol goed to 10%.
    -Starting from the 1) Fuel tank to 2) Fuel pump 3) Fuel lines to the engine
    What must be changed in order the E10 doesn't eat away some soft (rubber) parts?


    S4 is completely stripped underneath so can do the needed mods now.

    Ow E85 conversion info also welcome as if it's 85 compatible E10 will be ok as well!

    95e10 is perfectly fine with your engine. No worries, ECU will compensate. All components used (fuel lines, pump, injectors etc) can cope with 10% ethanol just fine. They will not die because of the ethanol content but the 20 years of age.

    I really can't see banning 98e5. Some engines are stock tuned to that octane level and there's old engines that can't cope with varying ethanol-%.

    E85 conversion done right is basically new injectors and ECU tuning for that setup. Don't go for those cheap conversion kits.

        That's all you can get at normal pumps in the US.
        You're good...
