e85 questions

dyllan12 · 04-16-2020, 01:15 PM

So i'm planning on doing MHD E85 map ... but If for instance I put 100% 93 oct in gas tank , would anything happen if i'm on full 93 octane while on an e30-50 MHD map??

what?

yes, yes that would be a problem. of course it would be.

if you arent running a blend flash back to the correct map for the fuel youre using, takes 2 minutes. alternative is ruining your engine.

so what if for instance if i'm on 93 oct map , and i filled up with 93 but there's like a little left of e85 in it can sum still could go bad ..... I'm very cautions , but i'm very paranoid so i look at any situations as possible , i over think scenarios

having some ethanol in the tank on a 93 map is fine, but do not run a e blend map with straight 93 in the tank

id say up to e30 give or take is fine on a 93 map, so if you are switching over, just run your blend down under a 1/4 tank and fill up and it shouldn't be an issue
