    Get rid of E10 and bring back E5.
    Totally agree! We've seen fuel efficiency decrease with E10 - have also seen issues with seals with damage from the additional ethanol.

    Has anyone else here tried using products like ethanol safeguard from Lucas Oils? We've recommended it to a number of customers (along with the injector cleaner) I know some have fed back they see an improvement but find it an odd concept to buy something else to add to fuel, particularly given the price of fuel now, even though it saves money in the long run.

    Then just use one of the premium fuels (like V-Power) that are still E5
