What's a stock car? You mean those big drag racers?!

I initially responded to post #1. Nothing that I saw in it indicated that the OP was referring to a modified engine.

Y'all have fun. <G>

I actually don't like e85 as I feel the negatives outweigh the benefits when looked at globally, a lot more if you take other alternative fuels into consideration.


That being said, if I was looking to squeeze every little hp out of my engine then e85 would be in the tank but with my current setup I don't need more power and am not tuned for e85

Gotta tell everyone about the corn juice.
Why else would I carry my giant ear of corn around all day?

I was just about to ask why E85 would be an issue. I always figured Ethanol vaporized more readily than fuel. Gotta go back to basics I guess

I never had to attempt to start it more than once in the 50s and 60s F* but it certainly had a lumpy idle for ~10 sec

it certainly feels like race gas but the new 93 tune is close so I'm happy with it (mostly about lack of pumps around here)
