Hello everyone!
So ive got a few questions regarding E85. I live in New Zealand and where only now starting to catch up with the rest of the world regarding E85
and its starting to pop up at a few fuel stations and able to be purchased in drums.
I understand all the performance benefits of this fuel. Im more looking into what on a Mk3 supra with 7mgte needs to be changed in happily run this fuel in regards to the fuel tank itself does it hold up to the corrosive elements of e85? what about the factory hard fuel line?
I understand all rubber lines would need to be replaced. what about the aluminum fuel rail? i understand it corrodes aluminum short term or long term thing?
The car would be setup to run Flex fuel on the standalone ecu, we get 98 octane here so E85 would only be for special occasions at the track since its not a readily available at the fuel pumps yet, so it wouldn't be "sitting" with high concentrations of E85 in the tank/system while parked up its mainly a weekend car.
Thanks very much
Nick
