i've considered it. you'll need to flow 30% more fuel and a way to control a/f.

I'm running it on my 92 SC4. SAFC and fuel pump no injectors. For some reason, I can run e85 without any corrections on the SAFC. But if I reset the ecu, then I have to play with the SAFC for a few days then adjust the SAFC back to zero after a few days.

On the many E85 conversions I've done, my SC4 has been the strangest.

I considered it, but then found out I would be paying at least 20%-25% more for every mile driven.
