SAE rates by low permeation THRU the material
most of todays SAE high pressure(fuel injection) line only has a THIN inner liner of fluorinated rubber..
Subersible high pressure fuel line (for inside your fuelcell/gastank)
is fully Florinated & Aramid fiber reinforced and generally costs 4x as much
do u really want to chance increased Ethanol% to breakdown & carry sludge into your fuel filter & clog it?
Turbo Evo's guys who have switched to E85 have complain about black sludge in the fuel filter.. wanna take a guess what that is??

Like Frank Lee, I've been shoving E85 into my vehicles - mindful of stoich. ratio and
nothing else for as long as E85 has been available in my area.
Let me be as plain as I can here:
NO PROBLEMS.
No dissolving hoses, no dissolving seals, no dying fuel pumps, no clogged fuel filters, no changes in fuel mileage greater than the expected BTU difference, no check engine lights or engine faults other than (expected) fuel trim during tuning, no indications of a longevity concern, no trouble running/starting/idling (quite the opposite..)...
NO PROBLEMS.
Any time I mention online that I run E85 in a not-factory-E85 car -
and a few times while filling my tank - somebody
dooms and glooms me about the dangers of ethanol.
Well, still waiting for a problem to actually happen in the actual real world..
