Rather, what I really want is to not deal with the hassle of trying to mix gas and E85 at the pump, and hope I don’t exceed my limit. Yeah, I have a gauge to read Ethanol and I know that at about a little less than 1/2 a tank of E10 gasoline, I can top off with E-85 and be in a safe range. I just wanted to get to full E-85 and be safe simply as a matter of convenience. Fill it and forget it.
I hear ya when it comes to mixing and worrying! I ended up having Ted tune my car for the VP Fuels X85 so thats all I will be running! $45 for 5 gallons! I really only run it when I am going to the drag strip which is maybe 4-5 times a year. I spoke with Ted about the high side pump and injectors and the price tag on it made my decision.
