When I get it running again I think I'm going to fill up the Farmall with E85, just for gits and shiggles. See how she do.
Then, because the Farmall's power could most charitably be described as merely modest and at least on straight gas I will be able to keep the horsepower in the middle teens, I will siphon out whatever's left into Josie the Toyota. See how she do. I bet she'll do just fine.
I won't run it into the other vehicles. They're EFI and not tuned for flex fuel, so I don't reckon they'll like it much, maybe throw a code. I'd rather not have to screw around with that if I don't have to. But the older rides, being unsophisticated and therefore a lot more flexible in certain aspects, I bet they'll run like champs.
You will never convince me - and any of you had a hell of a lot more chance at convincing me than Fox News ever did - that E-xx will damage my engine, either by running it as fuel or by leaving it sit in the lines for a week or two. As for an entire season, well, anything bad that happens to an owner who leaves fuel sitting in his lines for months on end, deserves what happens to him. That's poor practice. Run some Sta-Bil in there and fear not.
