Interesting. Personally, I use e10 in my '97 Pulsar almost always, even though Nissan say not to. I've never had a problem with drivability or with the fuel or intake system. On the contrary, e10 is actually about 93 or 94 octane, as the ethanol raises the octane number of the 91 base

If you add an *nmd* parameter to the NearMap URLs with the date in MMDD format, you'll get the images for that date. To be exact, the date is a cutoff; you'll get the latest images with dates earlier than or equal to the date specified. Cheers Ben 2009/12/14 John Smith
