Dead middle of winter and my Z starts up every bit as quick as it does in the summer. A week ago we ran into a guy with an E content tester at a local pump. He came up with e91. Thats awesome. I'm paying 2.70$ a gallon this summer.
I am not sure I agree with you on this. At least here...E85 isnt used hardly at all by anyone...so the fuel sits for a long time...a lot longer than the pump 91 that is freshly refilled on a daily basis.

I was running E85 in my truck and got one bad tank of it and it went boom in the 1/4 mile..rods shot out all over the place.

Still love E85 but I would like to run a E85 sensor in the fuel line and make sure its really E85 before boosting/driving hard
