Gasohol is a blend of gasoline and ethanol. You are probably putting it in your car without realizing it. The most common blend of ethanol is called E10, which is about 90 percent gasoline and 10 percent ethanol by volume. All modern non diesel cars are certified to run on a blend of up to 10 percent. Now what is a modern non diesel car? That is not something I could get cleared up. Is my old bronco going to be damaged if I put gasohol in it? My bet is yes. Check your gas to see if you are getting more ethanol than gasoline, it should be posted where you purchase your gas. the standard ethanol content is 10 percent but it can be as high as 89! Just be aware of what kind of fuel you are putting into your car and whether or not it is the right fuel for you.
