  • please tell me why in my last video when i run a 2 stroke engine on E85 it gos faster than with gasoline (is a wood chain sow) thnx

  • It has to do with how fast your fuel burn, "burn ratio"

    This is why you need to advance your timing AND add more fuel to the mix.

    E85 gives you more power BUT you need to "pay" for it, 20% gain in power mean 17- 20% in consumption of fuel too, BUT this is a carbon neutral fuel, take your pick brother.....

  • so you ADD e85 to the normal 95 octane gasoline? does it work/help?

  • @citydriver

    You can do that to but I ran the car with only E85 after this. You need about 15% more fuel when runing E85 but you also gain the same 15 - 20% in power. This was only to show that any gasoline car can run E85.

  • well nothing have been falling apart the last 30 days and it's a 99.9 % chance it's going to stay the same the next month too, as for your plastic container I have no idea since my 20L can of E85 still have the same amount in it

    I think common scene when it comes to materials should get you where you need to be

  • E85 ethanol is an extremely corrosive liquid and will eventually destroy your fuel pump, lines, injectors, etc... pretty much anything that is plastic or rubber in your fuel system. id imagine you have changed these things before doing this but if not, here is some info before you destroy your car. also, E85 adds horsepower! =D

  • Actually you are wrong on the corrosive part, yes it desolves old oil that is filling cracks in your poor fuel lines and some of the real poor fuel pumps can't take it

    So I'm sorry to break another myth for you m8

    E85 give you a 20% gain in HP yes

    I think the car is just fine ;)

    When I have more time on my hands I'll show you more

    don't believe all that you hear, try it out for your self and THEN make the conclusion

see all

    If you increased your compression instead of advancing your timing you should use about the same fuel ?

  • Hey, check this video out and you can see for yourself  "E85 Ethanol Does not harm Non-FlexFueled Engines"

  • Yes ethanol is corrosive, but not much. Gasoline is corrosive too. Ethanol is biodegradable in water. So it has a tendency to contain and attract water. It is not the corrosive properties of ethanol that can cause damage to your vehicle; it is the water which can rust a vehicles fuel system from the inside out.

  • Fascinating!

  • i have a flex-fuel vehicle and have experienced the corrosiveness myself when i had a small amount in a thin plastic container let it roll around in the back of my truck for a few days... the thing fell apart into dust.

    the only difference between normal cars and flex-fuel cars is the flex-fuel cars have a fuel composition sensor that changes the timing and fuel pumps and lines that cannot be eaten away by the E85.

    i do give props to discovering the timing change. smarter than most people!
