cat007 Member 236 Member For: 8y 25d Posted 03/12/19 12:38 PM Posted 03/12/19 12:38 PM Hi all. Having trouble finding E85 that's over about 78% Ethanol from United. Does anyone have any experience in some decent stuff? I haven't tried Just Fuels in Sunshine yet. CheersHunt

cat007 Member 236 Member For: 8y 25d Posted 03/12/19 02:01 PM Author Posted 03/12/19 02:01 PM Hmmm. I hope it's not the measuring device. It's a brand new Innovate Motorsports one.I've got some graduated glass cylinders so I'll do some testing of my local United.

Like me, I just fill up United e85, get tune, go fast, fill up. Do skids, fill up. Blow something up, blame skids. Not fuel. But hopefully United hasn't got slack and dropped their ethanol content. Does ethanol content change if it sits for a long time? 2
cat007 Member 236 Member For: 8y 25d Posted 03/12/19 08:47 PM Author Posted 03/12/19 08:47 PM Yes. As it absorbs moisture the ethanol % reading will go down. Weather or not having water in the fuel actually changes how the fuel performs, I do not know.United only guarantee over 70% for their E85 apparently.
