Vp Ms 109e ras gas

Got a few cans of 109 yesterday. Didn't notice till this morning that it was 109e. Is that safe to run on are cars?? I think it's oxygenated.

Ethanol is what messing up our HPFP, so I would think its not the best but if its a small mixture of it, I guess it would be fine since all pump gas has ethanol

It only has 10% ethanol so it should be fine. I'll let you guys know.

You should be OK. If I recall correctly, in BMW manual it says it's OK to use gas with up 10% of ethanol mix.

That's made for race bikes. Not sure the N54 will like it.
