E85 on stock fuel system?
Can we run e85 safely on stock fuel system eg. fuel pump injectors? of course ill have a flex fuel kit and tune but i was just wondering if stock pump and injectors can handle e85.

I’ve been on E85 for 6 months now with no problems. I don’t even have a flex fuel kit. I just can’t switch between petrol and E85 but luckily we have E85 all over town so it’s not an inconvenience at all.

I’ve been switching back and forth from E85 and 91 petro for almost 6 months. I have flex fuel kit and tune as well. I don’t see any problem so far except whenever I’m on E85, I’m hearing this high pitch song from the engine, maybe from the fuel system I don’t know? Is it bad to switch fuel every 2-3 tank even with flex fuel kit?
