[QUOTE="tobynt, post: 11799107, member: 115996"] Dude, how long have you been running E85? I have been using it for over 5 years. I just haven't done a conversion with it. Our fuel systems are closed systems. They have been for at least 13 years or better. The only moister that's going to get in my fuel will come from the condensation that's built up in the fuel holding tank at the gas station. It will not have anymore or any less "water" in it then the gas that's coming out of the other tanks. The only reason we have a returnless fuel system on our cars is because of strict emissions regulations have become so stringent that the government is now regulating the emissions output that gasoline vehicles are allowed to produce even when the engine is not running! This is referred to as “evaporative emissions” and results from unburned hydrocarbons (raw fuel) emitting into the atmosphere from the fuel tank, fuel lines, injector leakage, intake manifold, etc. when the engine is shut off. This is the fundamental purpose of the charcoal canister (and hydrocarbon trap in the air-box on many vehicles) Its not a two way street. Running E85 in a car will not attract any more moister then running gasoline. If it didn't get pumped in...its not going to suck it in from the air. [/QUOTE]
