Hope your tuned for it, or your AFR mixture is gonna be all jacked up.

ive never seen e85 at a pump in arizona plus i heard people getting horrible gas mileage with it like 11 to 12 mpg
TVS2300 loves the corn!!!

plus we consume more resources harvesting and refining e85 then we produce
its just like canadian tarsands

True true and it is harder on your fuel delivery system. It's moonshine your running...
Tobad Gov, forces us to use corn. There is a entire country that uses its most abundant crop, Sugar cane to make it. But we are not allowed to import it due to greedy MF'ers.
If we could, they would go from poverty to awesome over night and we would have 1$ e85 that doesn't destroy our country.
And no its not any harder on your fuel system, it is in fact better.
The conception of it being harder is in fat due to it Cleaning your already rusty, corroded fuel system, thus clogging your filter and injectors with corrosion from Gasoline's harmful properties.
Research, its a way of life.

Myth No. 1: Ethanol requires more energy to make than it yields.
False. Argonne National Laboratory research has shown that corn ethanol delivers a positive energy balance of 8.8 megajoules per liter. The energy balance from second-generation biofuels using cellulosic sources is up to six times better, according to a study published in Biomass and Bioenergy Journal.
There are two key reasons ethanol is no longer net energy negative.
First, corn production efficiency has increased dramatically: Producers now grow 160 bushels per acre today versus the 95 grown in 1980, and corn yield continues to increase.
Second, ethanol production has become more energy-efficient. Today, more than 90 percent of corn used in ethanol production goes through a dry milling process that uses far less energy than the wet milling process used before. The combination of more corn per acre, coupled with a reduction of energy input to process ethanol, has resulted in a favorable energy output. The gallons of ethanol yielded per bushel of corn has also increased by about 50 percent.
