    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have Marine Stabil which I have not used yet until I run out of this stuff.
 
You have E10 and E15 which are blended with gas at a percentage. As for E85 it is straight use or can be used with what gas you may have in the tank, I don't know for sure, guess I need to read up on my manual on my work truck.:confused:

E85 is not approved by the manufacturers for use in most vehicles. It is only OK in "Flex Fuel" vehicles. Changes are not only made to the parts in fuel systems that can be degraded by ethanol. Optimizing performance for high ethanol content is done differently than for low or no ethanol in the fuel.

Anything higher than E10 is not recommended for GSes.

Yes I knew that, our work trucks are flex fuel. Though we have never used the E85 as of yet. Only a few stations carry it here and none of those are on our buy list. Though we do have some stations now that carry ethanol free gas or so they say. I would say 90% of the pumps here have a sticker on them saying at least 10% ethanol blend.
