Hi All,
I got some questions from a Forum member about E-15 I cannot answer but I am sure someone on the Forum can:

I just bought my first boat. A 130 hp i/o.
- Are you saying marinas have less e-10 in their fuel than a gas station? I know they have an additive mixed in, which I can mix in;

- And if the ethanol is the problem, why do some suggest more octane? It still has 10 % ethanol, no? It's more of a problem on older boats?
