Ethanol performs pretty well in a turbo charged engine, you know.
The two of our three cars that we mileage checked are both Turbo Charged 4 cylinder SAAB cars. One a 5 speed stick, the other an automatic trans. Former a 2001 year model, the latter a 1999 year model. Both formerly provided us 32 mpg, and 30 mpg respectively. Now 21.8, and 20.6 mpg respectively. Been to the pro’s as I’ve said in the previous post. The cars are in tune to proper specs.
The Pro’s I’ve mentioned are a single Volvo/SAAB auto clinic (not a chain) that is rated amongst the top 20 repair facilities across the Nation by AAA. I have to believe they know what the “H” they are doing. Besides we have had our cars serviced by them since 1988.
If it ain’t Ethanol, tell me if you can what it is.
Poor timing? Improper boost? Wrong rear end?
“If it ain’t Ethanol, tell me if you can what it is.”
You’re correct, IMO. Comparing BTU content of gasoline vs ethanol doesn’t tell the whole story.
