Yes its safe, but it is said that the higher VOCs swell some rubber
components, and the subsequent lack of these aromatics causes rubber
shrinkage, which caused many fuel injection fires in the mid to late 80s
when the good stuff was removed from gasoline, and the dreaded MTBE
was added.

Looks like 1 part in 5 gets to about 100.

net = (4/5)*92 + (1/5)* 130
