[QUOTE="shanezt, post: 9970649, member: 27639"] i run e-85 and 80's and the car truely does run perfect. when the temp is over 105 i have some trouble starting after a heat soak, nothing major i feel it is just the fuel boiling in the lines. i get 8mpg and fill up every sat and weds. i do have to disagree with sleeper on 1 thing. i can tell you from much experience with people adding e-85 to non e-85 vehicles, it does require about 30% more fuel during cruise and idle. every car i have had in the shop that had e-85 put in by mistake has adaptives pegged at +30%. this means the pcm is adding 30% more fuel to keep the a/f ratio at 14.7. now adaptives dont come into play at WOT so just cruising it does take at least 30% more fuel. this is the reason for the substantial drop in MPG. but i have to say it IS worth it.
