It certainly seemed to be framed as a question and when you Google search a loaded (framed) search you’ll find a plethora of confirmation bias backing searches. Going by your reasoning if I search for ‘fake moon landing’ it must be true as I’ll have loads of hits. :)

So going by your reasoning Ethanol does not cause problems in small engines in America ? ( this is a question )

I’m sure it does. The point being that asking leading questions (or statements)will always throw up answers to support that line of reasoning. Again, conformation bias.

Well to be honest it was more of a manor of speaking. Im sure it does in as much as I’m lead to believe it does. For example there is repeated adverts on the radio from the authorities stating that it might not be suitable for various applications including motorcycles. When they are broadcasting this on one station 5 times a day then I’m inclined to believe them and Im

sure they’ve done a lot of trials and testing which has resulted in them advising to either not run it in motorcycles or at least make sure your engine is compatible. 
 

I have had American Muscle cars all my adult life. As such Im a member of various clubs and forums here in the UK, Oz and the US. Some say E10 has caused no end of bother some say it’s fine. Where I to search for a leading question on these forums either for or against E10 issues that’s all I’d find. (Conformation bias)
