[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 490484, member: 21536"] Both Honda and Mercury say using E15 could void the warranty. I'm betting the other outboard manufacturers are saying something similar. Here is a partial quote from Mercury Marine: [i]" . . . warranty coverage on a broad array of repairs and services will become void on any Mercury engine that has been operated using fuel with an ethanol content of more than 10%."[/I] From Honda Marine: [i]"Using a fuel with percentages of ethanol or methanol greater than 10% may cause engine damage or performance problems that are not covered under the Distributor’s Limited Warranty ."[/i] [/QUOTE]
