E85 anyone?

And the alcohol in the E85 has taken less of a toll on rubber parts in the fuel system than people initially thought it would, in fact I watched a clip last night of a Tahoe that ran 105K on E85, no upgrades what so ever and the fuel system looked better (including the rubber lines) than another tahoe that ran 80K on regular fuel. It went on to a fellow that works at GM who says the only difference between the fuel system for a FFV truck and a regular gas truck these days is the ECU, everything else is the same.

this **** water 93 octane around here with 10% ethanol ****s up everything it comes into contact with that has a carb.
What gets me, is that the stations that sell pure gasoline are cheaper than the ones that have the ethanol. You go to paying 10 cents more a gallon for gas and it makes your gas mileage go down. wtf????

I not just talking about cars... lawnmowers, tractors and 4 wheelers too. I have only seen one carb need a few replacement parts. It had gas leaking out of it.
I don't like it in the gas. It doesn't do anything but hurt performance either. A lot of cars ping on 87 where as they don't with the pure 87. The 10 percent is nothing but bs so we have to buy more fuel.

For everyone else, I sucessfully changed the car over to E85 today. Was actually quite easy...little bit of street tuning and shes spot on. Injector duty cycle is at 95% at about 5400rpms (thats with 42# injectors). Still room for improvment but honestly that was skeptically easy?
