[QUOTE="biminiLX, post: 16370838, member: 7795"] Ethanol tends to be cheaper for the stations, so our area (Ohio/Michigan border) tends to run high on E (summer blend usually E85-89) and stay high thru late Oct/Nov. until it goes to E70. We do test, but here, once they switch to high test, it tends to stay. I do plan on adding a gauge just to have one, but I don’t stress it on the street. My rationale is that the concern is detonation, and even if it’s lower E, it still maintains detonation resistance down to E50 range. I would never do a Dyno or track session on untested pump E85 (I use VP X85 for running it hard), so definitely test for those conditions. For normal street fun, don’t over think it, even E50 is WAY better than pump 91-93. -J [/QUOTE]
