Covers most everything you need to know for converting a modern FI engine to E85.

Don't do it, it's not worth it.

Thumbs up Re: E-85?????

It's technically interesting but in spite of that, I have to agree that it's not worth the hassles.

If I were going to do anything like this, then perhaps it'd be something I'd play around with as a hobby. I'm not really interested in E85 but I am interested in making my own ethanol. Definitely not rocket science, but if I had more time than sense, it might be fun to play with.
