I have a 2007 SX Tucson, 2.7l V6 engine. The Australian user manual states
" Do not use fuels containing Methanol (wood alcohol).... Hyundai Warranty
will not cover damage of the fuel system......by the use of methanol or
fuels containing methanol"

Down here in Australia there is a 10% Ethanol Blend fuel available (I think
it is 93 Octane rating). What are your thoughts on this. Will I void my
warranty if I use this.

Thanks

Ethanol is not methanol. We use that often here in the US. It is the most
common additive in winter blends.
