Old post but a good one...

Shes ready for flex fuel via ECUTEK, but i had to wait a winter to pull the motor and fix what the drunk installers messed up.

I did the fuel system myself (with help from the CJM instructions) and im running:

-450 walbro e rated
-CJM fuel return kit with regulator and e rated filter/plumbing
-Innovate ECB-1 with ethanol sensor (plumbed into return line after the
regulator)
-Aeromotive pump speed controller (with canbus adapter for rpm signal) and
manual override switch'ed at next to the cup holder, so the pump can relax for normal driving.

The Evap system wiring was cut, spliced and utilized for ethanol signal to ECUTEK (specifically the vent control ) (and the WG solenoid control via purge valve input

Colorado has plenty of e85 stations, so its going to be a fun year

BTW: After hijacking the EVAP wiring, i found out the hard way that i have to cap off the plenum side of the evap metal line, and vent the canister side of the hose to atmosphere ( in the engine bay), or else I cant refuel the car without having issues getting it to start (was a bit embarassing) I suppose that I could reinstall and run the purge valve manually, but im unsure if the evap line itself is a boost leak source with or without the valve.
