The gasoline development guy from Sunoco confirmed those numbers. (3% less fuel economy @ 10 % ethanol)
Interestingly enough he stated that their 94 grade would not use ethanol (when he spoke 10 years ago to Corsa Ontario) because the performance customer demanded the pure stuff.
I am not sure if they are adding ethanol to their top Canadian blend today. I know that they have a 93 grade here in CT and yes it contains up to 10 % ethanol. (For the life of me, I wonder why the say up to 10 %?)
Regards, Garth
PS - And yes Stanley, it was 10 years ago.
