E15 question
Does anyone know if I can use E15 gasoline in my stock 2019 2SS? It is 94 octane. I currently put in 91 with a booster.

I read somewhere that they are considering going to E15 across the board anyway. Most modern vehicles can handle a little more corn alcohol. The older vehicles will be affected though. I worry about my 97 TJ and the fuel tank and lines.

I would think it can handle it just fine. Interesting that it's 94 octane for you. The gas stations near me that have e15, it's 88 octane.

Up to 15% ethanol is ok according to page 24 of the manual:
No E85 or FlexFuel Gasoline-ethanol fuel blends greater than E15 (15% ethanol by volume), such as E85, cannot be used in this vehicle. |

Ya, I talked to our local supplier, he said it is the 91 premium mixed with ethanol to bring it up it to 94. Better than most, he said!
