Thanks for that Bob, very helpful.  Someone over here is stressing about =
 taking his car to France (eventually ...) where E5  was getting rare =
several years ago.  We are trying to put his mind at rest.

  Paul,
     I have been burning E10 for 20 years, ever since it became the =
standard in State of Connecticut.  My experience has been that the =
standard engine configuration burned it fine, without any needle =
changes, and  that the engine, rebuilt to UK specifications a decade =
ago, does just as well with the factory-specified needle.  I had the =
type 25 distributor rebuilt by Advance, Jeff Schlemmer, and set =
mechanical timing at 32 at 3500.=20
  Bob
