If using regular gasoline in engines suited for E85, it could cause the whole engine to explode.E10 is 10% ethanol 90% gasoline. It's mandated in about eight states. It creates less carbon emissions. However by doing a little six month study on my own, I averaged about a 10% loss in MPG, therefor needing more, which in turn doesn't really lower the emissions I was putting out compared to 100% gasoline.I would average 360 miles on one full tank of 100% gasoline and 335 on E10.I go with pure gasoline which boosts milage and saves more than the $.10 that E10 charges less than pure.*E-10 is NOT SAFE for carburetor engines without specific modifications, though safe for everything else.</blockquote>
