E85 problem

I just ran my fuel out and change to my e85 tune for the first time. After driving 7 miles I tried going WOT and it sputters at 4800 rpm. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thx

get a log and review it and also post it for others to review, or send it to your tuner.

Go drive it again. I just did that last night. I think if you don't let it idle long enough after you flash, it goes into "service mode" or something. Mine sputtered last night exactly like what you're describing. Got in it this morning and got on it after it warmed up and its like a rocket. I still had 2 gallons of 93 in there too.
