E85 use.. again..Check owner manual V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be BG on  Thu Feb 28 15:56 CST 2008 [RELATED]

In the USA version of the 1999 S70/V70 owner manual on p. 67, the 2nd paragraph states:

Alcohol - Ethanol
Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume may be used. Ethanol may also be referred to as Ethyl alcohol or "Gasohol."

On the right side of the page is a box with warnings. One of them:

Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts of the fuel system.


Please let us know how your experiment progresses.
