But the water is still there and drawn in to the engine. So if that is true, then E5 will be better all round than E10 no matter what you mix in with it.... Do you think they are trying to get more people to buy diesels.......... Yes, but if it is held in suspension and burnt as part of the combustion process, then that is fine, as the water content is no longer present in the fuel. I guess the amount of water in any given combustion cycle is very tiny indeed, so the engine performance is not compromised. The additives also carry a certain amount of 'lubricant' to help the engine internal fuelling components avoid corrosion, which is common on engines not designed for E10 and not using an additive. E5 still has the 'water' issue, but E10 just magnifies the problem. No way am I having a boat with a tractor engine ..............🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
