Ethanol is STILL corrosive. Adding octane doesn’t change that.

Gaffer, Av-Gas is ethanol free. Guys with Auto Fuel STC’s and homebuilders with fibreglass fuel tanks found out the effects real quick. It ate away at o-rings and they had to go to VITON seals and the fuel tanks decomposed, which lead too clogged fuel lines etc. & emergency landings.
