I have never had any small engine problems using E10 in dry ND. I have nothing that is FFV rated, so I rarely blend fuel above E50, and that in summer in only fuel injected rigs.
We now have a few area blender pumps dispensing 87 gasoline, 90 E10, E30, E85 from the same pump. Gas and E10 is the same price, E30 is 40 cents cheaper, E85 is 80 cents cheaper. The E30 seems to work / start fine, even on the below 0 winter days in the FI engines.
Ethanol blended fuel has been a fact of life for over 30 years, the car makers got it together and switched to E compatable fuel system parts 28 years ago, so I have no patience for a small engine maker that still refuses to fix the problems with running what is now "normal" E10 blend fuel. If it says " no ethanol in the operators manual, that engine will not follow me home. Thats the only way I can get their attention.
