Do You mean straight ethanol or ethanol blended petrol?
I can't help you, just clearing up the question.
The links below told me blended is OK for EFI zooks, but not OK for Carbied Zooks

been running it in the 94 Vit for 18 months ... all good.
Seat of pants type dyno says power the same. Fuel consumption up by maybe 1-2 %.
So, although it's cheaper at the bowser, the bottom line saving in $ is not that great, but still enough. AND ... ya get that warm fuzzy feeling inside from doing something good for the environment.
