I too wish more gas stations would just stick to normal gas.... ethanol is everywhere, there has to be one gas station in my area that still has normal gas and it is most of the time the opposite direction of anywhere that I am going....

The mixed shit fucks everything up because the ethanol part doesn't do anything but get in the gas's way.
Straight ethanol as in E85 has advantageous and this that and the other, and sure you can make power and blah blah blah.
I and most everyone else that is bitching about how shitty it is, is bitching about the mix shit.

ethanol gets in the gas's way? HAHAHA...ethanol will clean the shit outta your old and busted POS. who is this everyone else? people who dont know shit, like you?

you had to retard the timing to get your car to idle with E10? please explain to me why this makes ANY SENSE???

this is comming from a guy who couldnt get his 240 running for 6 months, he had the firing order wrong. 90% of what this guy knows he learned from me, and im sorry to say that he didnt learn very much.

this guy never even seen a dyno or a fuel map. and every car hes owned has been ghetto rigged together and has had half shit bypassed and plugged.

pretending you know stuff isnt cool! it makes you look even more dumb.

Wait, I missed the whole having to retard timing to run E10.




You can advance timing on ethanol because its the equivalent of higher octane gasoline.....



Side note, +1 to the E85 being different from E10, E10 is what the gas stations carry, E85 is 85% Ethanol, and isn't widely sold. Cars running E85 can run more aggressive timing and make more power, and if you don't believe that then tell Saab. They ran two identical turbo cars in a race, one on E85 with more aggressive timing, the other on high octane gasoline, the E85 car walked on the gasoline car in the drag race.

I've explained it many times. and proven it so many times.
I agree, e85 has some major advantages, but not the less than 10% crap. that little bit works very differently...
