I guess it depends on the area or the person ... some people have nothing but good things to say about certain servos etc.

all I know is I've done 235,000kms on mostly only BP fuel and never had an issue :P it was mainly because its the only servo in the right spot that suits me on my trip to and from work. that and the fuel card was for BP and shell, and the shell servo was out in the sticks and heaps dearer!

anyways .... E85 from Caltex seems ok too :) I got my mates tester and the current blend way 75% ethanol and that seemed to work ok in my car on the dyno! yet to track test it.

I think your OK if your using a busy servo, if it's quiet than chances are you will get stale fuel.

ethanol hater or not... ethanol, chemically is pretty close to methanol. its just not poisonous to humans... and it does make really good power not to mention you only need injectors half as big :P

not quite half :P

with deka 80's i went from pretty much maxing my injectors at 43kpa rail pressure on methanol to 70% duty cycle on e85 and with 9.5:1 compression and 18psi i have no problems with the E85!
