[QUOTE="65sohc, post: 14508293, member: 76360"] I just discovered this strategy and tried it for the first time today in my Boss. The link to the calculator in the original post provides the answer. Basically if you first pump in 2.2 gal of e85 and then top off with 91 e10 you end up with e20 and 93 octane in the Mustang's 16 gallon tank. The state of Minnesota mandated several years ago that all gas be either e20 or e85. I spent several hours reading the research, done at Mankato State University, that led to the approval of the e20 ruling. They tested 80 non-flexfuel vehicles over a period of twelve months, comparing e0 and e20 and found no significant issues with driveability, fuel mileage, or component wear. The e85 I bought today cost $2.55/gal. so I saved about a buck filling the tank to gain two octane points. I'm hoping my TracKey will be happy and maybe give me a degree or two of timing advance.
