No idea. Never had an issue yet. When I was completely on E85 with several tanks I have always read 77%. That has been with over 5 deliveries filling the fuel stations tanks.

If it says e85 it is not supposed to be less than e70. That is why everyone used to be tuned at e70 on the highest map setting.

If it says flex fuel or what ever I think it has to be at least e35.

Yeah, I think you found yourself a good station. Too bad they don't keep it stocked all the time.

The Propel station I used to go to removed their sticker that used to say minimum e72 and now they're serving up crap. I'll need to find a new station when I get my car back.

That sucks! I know it is hit and miss in Vegas and Phoenix is all flex fuel crap. I was told if you order it or go get it from the distributor for ARCO it runs between 77 to 84.

Just open this link. It will tell you if it is E85, etc.

I did that a few minutes ago and one of the 4 stations it listed in my area was the Propel station that's serving the crap now.

Fortunately, there are 3 other stations in the same area. I hope one of them has a minimum of e70.

Expect prices to go up towards winter. Corn is having a bad year growing.

Corn here started out slow but is doing fine now.

I went to the orchard yesterday for cider and the apple trees have massive amounts of fruit on them this year.

Cheaper than race gas. No worries from me.

I have so many apples and pears, that the branches was breaking.

My raised bed garden is still doing great.

The corn and soybean harvest reports I've been reading shows a bad year this year. Because of a late start to planting because of cold weather and major flooding. And there have been early frost too in the upper midwest. The growing season got cut short.
