Re: [Biofuel] Question about E85
Helow angela , Brasil government and petroleium compny is using etanol in gasoline depending on the availabilty for tha car made for gasoline upto 18 porcent of 95 porcent bioethanol made from sugar cane for the tropical climate .You need to bother about room temperature as this may lead to starting problem of the car. Brazilian car have been improved to over come this problems. Plenty of information available in JTF biofuel web page and also in our list.

[Biofuel] Question about E85
Does anyone know if anything has to be done to the fuel system if you're planning on running E-85 in your vehicle? I have heard conflicting stories. I have a 2001 Chevy Impala that I would fill up with E85. I've been using 10% Ethanol with no problems. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Re: [Biofuel] Question about E85
Angela, the fuel system of your car will most likely not tolerate more than 30% E85 in gasoline. The "black box" has to be adjusted to increase the highest possible fuel amount to be injected. I think that the easiest way is to get a car with a carburettor, and enlarge the main injector to a proper size, which means making it 30-40% wider. But that car will not be able to run on pure gasoline again, unless you switch back to the original main injector. Be aware that some fuel pums disapprove of ethanol showing this by stop working.
