Is there any adverse effect if you start the car with 91 octane tune with e85 in the tank, by mistake? |

He's just saying that you're obviously not running a flex fuel setup, therefore your proposed method would be impossible to accurately and consistently achieve.

Since there is only 1 E85 pump in my city and it is not close by I already take jerry cans with me and pick up as much as I can at once. This means that the amount of time required to test ethanol content is worth it for me so that I don't have to make the trip as often. So, assuming I can reliably target a %E as described above, is there any other reason this would be a bad idea? |

Unless your going to rework the tune significantly to accommodate your altered average E% |

it will be optimal in the middle E% range it was designed for bit like running car on 91 on stoxk petrol tune it will work but its not optimal. |

Shiv, which flex fuel kit can you recommend for a current vortech OFT300 customer, that wants to run 550 cc injectors and a range of 91 to e85?
