Hello all, I am intrested in going e85 very soon especially after seeing how great some of the built motor cars seem to run on it. I just have a few concerns/questions hopefully someone doesnt mind answering. I found the answers to most awhile back but for the life of me cant find them agian.
My car is rarely driven especially right now due to there being an insane amount of construction work in the dfw and weather not being all that great.
Car sees maybe 10 to 15 miles each week on average so the fuel in the tank is probably only cycled out about once or twice a month if that and I never fill over 3/4. I have heard that e85 shouldnt sit in a car too long is this true?
Also I dont ever let my tank go bellow 1/4th because dont want to risk any uneeded stress on pumps and such. Should you almost always go close to empty before you fill back up with e85?
I have seen on here that you want to run a little thicker oil with e85 due to its thinning effects on the oil. I think I saw somewhere that 10w30 full synthetic amsoil or royal purple is the best?
Any other pieces of advice are appreciated
