Interesting.  Personally, I use e10 in my '97 Pulsar almost always, even 
though Nissan say not to.  I've never had a problem with drivability or 
with the fuel or intake system.

On the contrary, e10 is actually about 93 or 94 octane, as the ethanol 
raises the octane number of the 91 base fuel.  Occasionally I'll use 
ordinary ordinary ULP where e10 isn't available, and then I'll hear the 
occasional pinking from the engine momentarily until the knock sensor 
retards the spark.  Running with more spark advance on e10 makes up for 
its marginally lower energy content.

Just my 2¢ worth in an emotional and off-topic debate.
