Keep Fuel E10 Protection Handy, says Lucas Oil

Lucas-Oil Safeguard Ethanol Fuel Conditioner with Stabilizer

(19th October, 2021) – 

Lucas oil is providing further helpful advice about how motorists can protect their cars against ethanol damage.

“For customers with cars susceptible to ethanol damage, keeping an additive in the glove box – an additive that protects the car against ethanol - means there is always a safe solution at hand whenever it’s required,” says Dan Morgan, Sales and Operations Director at Lucas Oil Products UK.

“The recent UK fuel crisis has demonstrated that E05 fuels might not always be available when fuel tanks are running low.”

Safeguard Ethanol Fuel Conditioner with Stabilizers protects cars against E10 fuel problems now and in the future. Using it regularly can also work out cheaper than to remain on E05 fuels, which are currently selling at premium rates at the pumps.

As well as attacking rubber fuel pipes made of certain types of rubber in older cars, ethanol has also been linked to ‘sinking’ problems with floats in carburettors and the removal of tin from soldered joints.

Lucas Oil’s ethanol solution works at levels of up to E85. It was developed to help motorists in the US ahead of the switch to h­­­­­igher ethanol fuel levels, a few years back.
