I'm betting the IS-F has enough fueling to use E85 full time. Especially since the computer is always adjusting A/F to a specific limit.

I ran about 4 gallons in my fill up without any issues at all. Didn't really notice any changes though, but certainly never had a funny idle.
so no codes or anything from running the E85??? ( so that was about 20 to 25% ) that you ran mixed with 93 per tank

Actually, no, they're not ethanol, they're kerosene. Check the MSDS on them and you can see for yourself. Nothing but octane killers.
