chevron has recently put 10% ethanol in their gas to meet canadas climate action plan for cleaner emissions. the gas has allready been put into the tanks around the lower mainland . so for those of you with tunes , you may need to retune for the altered gas that is now at the pumps.

just a heads up

 

chevron and Husky has been putting "up to 10%" Ethanol for a while now, like early 2000 lol.

back on the east coast Shell runs 5% Methanol i beleive on their 91oct V-power.....94oct dont exist there.

while a lot of gas station dont really advertise it, its either 5% Methanol or 10% Ethanol, thats the highest they want to run without damaging cars that arnt exactly compatable with it.

you're fuel economy will be affected, i doubt it will throw any tunes off, seeing that Ethanol is higher octane than average gas, your current tune will only be safer to run.

 

husky has always, but i was just at chevron on 41st and oak and they were running their tanks dry so that the new formula could be put in . also the chevron by my work was doing the same . there may have been a few stations offering it before but now it is all stations.

 

A retune will help if you in the quest for max power, although not mandatory being only 10% ethanol.

 

husky have had ethanol mix in their pump gas.

i just noticed chevron recently too. now, theres basically no difference in running either. husky gives me points towards my bcaa membership though! hahaha

 

the 94 octane does not get the ethanol but the other octanes do. also note that 92 octane has dropped a point to 91 octane due to the ethanol.

 

So I wasn't going crazy when I saw the 92 disappear. The gas attendant thought I was drunk or something! Good thing they didn't touch my 94
