Your car won't run on ethanol unless tuned for it. When you go to the dyno, you'll want a fresh and full tank of whatever juice you're using.

The first one may need changing within a week. They should be easy to blow through and if not, turf it. My third new filter is right as rain. I fitted KPM 10 micron stainless. Cleaned after 2000ks of E85. Clean as. I assumed it would be full of crap. That being said my car only has done 42k I dont recommend using the paper filter, the E85 breaks down the glue. Maybe install a brand you stock filter and after 500ks change to a stainless mesh Read the threads. All the serious E85 guys run 10 micron stainless mesh cleanable filters. I use 20L/100 cruising around and 30-40/100 when on the gas Edited 21/05/18 04:19 PM by arronm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have tried imgur and flikr and similar sites, but bloody hopeless at tech sh*t and cant work it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
