I had been using e10 for quite sometime. what i noticed was (apart from being non-compatible as per Honda Cars Philippines) that my sparkplugs tend to have rust in the tips. is this normal? anyone have the same experience? 
Restoration bug bit me. I don't mind if I drive a stock 14 year old car, as long as it's shiny as new, it'll do.

That's actually perfect combustion. The typical black tips mean your plug is dirty with unburned fuel or oil.
Red tips are ideal.

One more side effect to worry about when using E10 gasoline.
Cracking / rotting fuel hoses.

I mean, rust. Reddish brown rust. 
For the cracked / rotten hoses, I already consulted the SA for Honda. I could safely convert the trusty ol' 96 Civic to be fully compatible with e10.
