So I’ve been running e85 for almost a year now, but my fuel pump is 2 months old.
I’m at 75% ethanol content.

Been retuned and everything.

You think it’s just the nature of the Z on e85?

Ok so I caught a smaller dip this morning - it tends to happen like this - and only a few times during the first 5 - 10 minutes of driving..

This just normal? It’s at just about 10 seconds - 15 seconds — something like that… It dips down to 700 and boosts up to 900
