Anyone tried it??? There is a servo around the corner from me that is selling it.

Was interested in trying it out but my next door neighbor filled up with it a few days ago and the car is throwing up a Check Engine light now..........   :scratchchin:

My mechanic has spoken to me about e85 for the subi.
I personally can't be assed with it.

I have to change injectors and a few other things as it erodes parts. Also it is not available every where and definitely not in Tassie where I do over half my driving in a year.

There is another car the same as mine that has been converted to e85 and tuned for it. It had 10% more power. But also a massive amount ou torque more that we have seen through lap times that just smash mine.

The lack of convenience is the biggest problem.


There is also flex fuel sensors that are doing very cool things with this fuel.




Ps
Thought you might like this pic.

Car has to be able to take it. Or it does damage.
