E0 = Zero Ethanol " How to Avoid Ethanol" Guide copied from www.nortonownersclub.org/noc-chat/general/346895968
Thought this would be of interest, as I have lost the plot with Ethanol doped fuel. They do make some interesting pionts. As we have both garages in my area. Murco Super E0 BP Ultimate E0 As prevenion is better than cure.
Bob, first of all Murco Super where supplied from their own refinery will remain E0. I suggest you talk to Chris Blake to find out where your nearest E0 Murco station is. Mine is Beverley, East Yorkshire. I'll be writing to BP very soon. Currently Ultimate is E0 except in the SW. The problem with the standard reply is that BP will cite the government targets and renewable fuels obligation and say that the specification for Ultimate allows for 5% Ethanol. In other words the fuel can be contaminated without notice or warning. Blame our politicians for that. Last time I bought Ultimate, the Manageress at the BP garage said I was the third person to ask about Ethanol that day. Keep asking! If the customer is always right then BP will leave Ultimate E0. Any update will be on 'Neil's Norton Notes' (Home page) via Google The April fuel warning came from the Editor of 'Enjoying MG' last Month. Roch Bentley is also a Motorcyclist. Just in case, I have filled all my tanks. If you haven't already we really do need to lobby our MP's. I believe only UKIP will rid us of these Green dreams! 4* leaded @ BS 40/40 will be E0 but not much about now. The standard for E0 unleaded is BS 70/70 while 5% Ethanol is EN228. If you see any E10 it will come with a warning notice!

Also heard chat of putting two stroke oil in, with the new fuel. Because the Ethanol is "DRY" compared to the old fuel.They say thats why you get damage to the brass in your carb.
