> The state of Hawaii is going to allow a 10% mixture of ethanol to be put
in
our gas supplies. The problem I have is that my Bentley says NOT to use it
in Audi 1988-1991 models (80,90,and Coupe Quattro). "The use of fuel
containing alcohol can cause loss of fuel economy and drivability and
performance problems"

> Has anyone used ethanol blended gas in these models and seen good or bad
effects?

Occasionally used it, no complaints, has been on sale in Canada for years.
