Fuel pumps, injectors and ethanol use concern

We don’t get E85 so I want to use 97% fireplace bio ethanol in my tank occasionally when running a 93octane/98ron map because the fuel quality differs station to station and some give me lots of timing corrections and some less. The fuel I use currently has “upto” 5% ethanol. I’m wondering is there any issue with using 3-5 litres of ethanol per full tank? Does it cause more wear on the fuel pumps or injectors? This would probably bring the ethanol content to 8-10%. If that doesn’t fix it I’ll try a 15% ethanol blend.
