[QUOTE="cj428mach, post: 15553362, member: 142081"] I have a drum in my garage that I keep e85 in. I live in a small town with no e85 pumps, but 25 miles away in Wichita (the big city) there are several e85 pumps. It seems myself or my wife makes it to Wichita a few times a month, and we just take a 5 gallon can with me that we fill up and bring home to dump in my barrel. I have a cheap rotary pump that I bought off ebay that I drop in when I need to fill up the car, if not I keep the barrel sealed. Theres been a time or two that the barrel has gotten almost empty, in those instances I just loaded up the barrel and took it to the E85 pumps. The only down side to doing this is unloading a full 55 gallon drum by yourself at home. It can be done but I certainly don't enjoy it lol. I also haven't ever worried much about swapping fuels. The first few times I drained the tank but after that I just drove until I had an 1/8th of a tank or less and then filled it up with the other fuel. Sometimes I'd put a few gallons of the new fuel in the tank and drive around until I had burned that out then I'd just fill up all the way with the new fuel. Eventually you'll just quit switching, I think this May I'll be 2+ years with nothing but e85 in the tank. [/QUOTE]
