Alcohol, if used, is to be blended with the fuel in a concentration of 1%
by volume. Concentrations greater than 1% are not recommended
since they can be detrimental to fuel tank materials.
The manner in which the alcohol is added to the fuel is significant
because alcohol is most effective when it is completely dissolved in the
fuel. To ensure proper mixing, the following is recommended:
1. For best results, the alcohol should be added during the fueling
operation by pouring the alcohol directly on the fuel stream
issuing from the fueling nozzle.
2. An alternate method that may be used is to premix the complete
alcohol dosage with some fuel in a separate clean container
(approximately 2-3 gallon capacity) and then transferring this
mixture to the tank prior to the fuel operation.
