Hi, anyone tried Full Force 10 Fuel in their Rs200z Altezza ? I've tried it and car seems to go ok. Is this new blend ok for these cars ? |

I tried it for the first time a couple of weeks ago in my RS200, and it went ok. Apparently it is fine to run it in the RS200. Didn't seem to have as much power as BP 98, but that could just be my imagination <_< |

Yup, i ran a full tank of it in my rs200, it drinks it so quickly, and no power increase at all(even put it on the dyno) so i just run BP 98 |

It seems to be a bit hit and miss, my car would barely run on force 10 but others that I know got huge benefit from running force 10 over bp 98. Another thing about force 10 is that it's only up to a maximum of 10% ethanol and the mix can vary quite a lot. It's fine to run in our cars as with most vehicles, we've been running and tuning a lot of cars on force 10 through work and haven't noticed any deterioration of rubber fuel line or seals. It has an inhibitor added to the fuel mix to prevent (as much as possible) the deterioration/corrosion of steels and rubber commonly found in fuel systems. We also did a couple of tests where we immersed a variety of fuel hose and fittings in various ethanol mixtures right up to e85 for several months and the only one that didn't handle it was rubber carburetor hose which isn't really suitable for efi engines anyway. |
