E10 petrol and headaches ?

[miker]

To start with i can't afford Aspen 2 all the time !!!

Ive been using the backpack blowers for last couple of weeks now that the leaves are coming down in earnest, been having crappy headaches for last week or so

Is this related ? anyone else having similar problems ?

Is it me or does the E10 look/feel waxy, and smell different, i see super unleaded is still E5 , might try that

Cheers

I tried some super unleaded in my backpack blower for the first time this week - only thing I noticed was how much fuel it went through, about double the amount it usually does!

The super unleaded e5 is what we have gone to had no issues. We have bought a additive to for the e10 petrol ⛽️ but can’t remember what it’s called but I’ll have a look cheers hope this helps 👍

Buy Aspen in larger quantities and the pricing goes down.
Anyone can afford Aspen you just chuck an extra amount of the quote… £5 on a smaller job and so on.

I was reducing hedge other week and eye seemed to sting/sore and not be due to sweat, etc. Had wondered if the e10 had caused it. Had additive in as well..

Ivy dust is nasty and noticed dust on beech also mould spores maybe.

Was thinking the same, also had sore eye when cutting conifer hedges.
