No, E20 is 20% ethanol and this is what the repair manual states, "The maximum permissible concentrations of these components, which are also specified within DIN EN 228, are as follows:
†Methanol 3 % by vol.
†Ethanol 5 % by vol.
†Isopropanol 10 % by vol.
†Tertiary butanol 7 vol. %
†Isobutanol 10 % by vol.
†Ether (min. 5 C atoms) 15 % by vol.
†Oxygen content 2.7 % by weight
