Nice! There is one ethanol station in San Diego.

Love E85. Been running it in my car exclusively for almost two years now. It doesn't know how to knock, even with 11.0:1 SCR, 11 pounds of boost, and 29 degrees of timing at WOT.

priorities changed a little bit, and it didn't make sense for me to have the money tied up in it. made it a lot easier for me to get some things done on the MR2 (such as the fuel pump) and will make it easier for me to get a house sooner rather than later.

haha, very nice. what kind of power do you put down? also, have you had to change out your fuel filter more frequently?

Through a stalled 4L65:



I pull the filter cartridge every 5-8K miles and clean it. I also check the injectors every 1500 or so miles to check them for the famous 'black goo.' The car only has 19K miles on the odometer now.

found mine used for $250. when did you get yours? i think a few months ago they were having a sale on them, but as far as i know, there aren't any new ones at dealerships anywhere now.
