<p>I do not know where the limit of the percentage of ethanol in
petrol is. I have used E15 on and off for a long time
(>20years) in my cars, including my Jensen-Healey without any
problems. Theoretically power should be down a bit but I never
encountered separation, even when the car has not been used for
more than 6 months, no corrosion in the fuel tank, fuel pump or
carburettors, no problems with fuel hoses (which I replace every
10 years or so anyway and have done so on any car since the
1960's).</p>
