Will the ISF run well with a blend of e85?

It doesn't matter what you throw in as long as the mixture has the same concentration. This is very basic molecular kinetics.

Don't know but my mpg has been about the same as before with straight 91 and more occasions than not it's been about 1-2 mpg higher??? Maybe again altitude has something to do with it but I definitely haven't suffered like I thought I would mpg wise?

Great! Can't say I'm shocked as it's inline with our results here, the stuff works and it's an excellent way to aid the tune to get the most out of it

^^^^^Nice! The overlay says it all doesn't it?

Thanks for the graph overlay cayman! And that is with 93 octane base! I'm sure it is even more significant for those of us that only have access to 91 premium. Great work guys

Not a problem^^^^I should've made a post about this about a month or two ago but I wanted to have 3-4 months of blending done before I started a thread, so when Idoke started this thread I thought this would be the right time to add my experience!
I'm glad everything seems to be pointing the right direction as far as results go with documentation/data logging to back up claims!
Like I said before I'll be an E85er for life especially @ $1.69 gal, and as long as gas stations carry it I'll never go back to straight 91 octane!

I found an app called E85 Calculator on IOS. Just hit the defaults at the bottom, adjust the Gas Octane Rating in my case to 93, select either desired octane or ethanol % and then type in the % filled field. I have it set to 15 gallon tank capacity to account for the 2 gallon reserves. The result at the top shows you how much fuel to ethanol to add for a full tank.
