You will throw CELs left and right but not the end of the world. Just get some premium in as you use the e85 up. Car may run like crap though.

If you are currently stuck at the gas station and this is an emergency....Everything online says it isn't the end of the world but it could do damage and throw codes. If I did that and caught it, I'd probably try to siphon as much out as possible and refill again. I'm sure more E85 educated people will speak up when they see this. Good luck.

Premium gas.
I would not worry about sucking it out. Go for a long drive and burn it up since it burns fast. It isn't that big a problem. Just don't keep doing it.

Careful with trying to top off an already full tank, could damage the charcoal canister or another part of the evap system.
