i just discovered by making a basic test that the gas i was using have ethanol in it.

you just have to put water in gas and shake it for 1 min and if there is ethanol the water will become blurred and with no ethanol the water with stay kind of clear.

the gas i tested was shell v-power and petro-canada 94octane

i am swithing to shell v-power because i disapprouve the use of ethanol in gas
