Fuel Additives

Has anyone else been using fuel additives to fight the ill effects of ethanol fuels? I am WELL aware that BMW does not approve any additives other then the Techron type that is relabled to read BMW fuel additive or LubroMoly fuel system cleaner. The BMW engines were designed to run on non-ethanol fuels and that's why I've been using the stuff. For the past 15+ years I have been using the Lucas Fuel injector cleaner and upper cylinder lube in all my vehicles (540 with M62, X5 with M62, E46 with 330I, Viper, ZR1) on every fill up. The only time I don't use it is when the vehicle will not be driven for a few weeks or more, in that case I use StaBil or Lucas Fuel stabilizer. In my experence I have never experenced any ill effects from these products. Anyone else using these?
