I strongly enriched several start tables and got first-try starts on e85 at 50F. This is with Propel, which has a high ethanol content. A gallon or two of 91 will also go a long, long way towards easing starts. If you go from a near-empty tank of 91 and then fill it with ethanol, you'll start just great because of that gallon of gas sloshing around. Run it low again and fill up with e85, however, and without that extra gas, the hard starts begin.
