So if pure Ethanol is 113, then a mix of ethanol/gasoline might still yield a higher octane fuel than super unleaded. If so, then:

1) Does it burn slower because it is denser? I might be wrong, but isn't higher-octane fuel denser than lower octane fuel?

2) Can older engines - like engines with Webers - burn ethanol? Or is that ill-advised?
