[QUOTE=Crazy Dazz;6367453]


As I understand it, cars designed to run on E85, have components more resistant to corrosion and solvent attack?

Most cars (there are a few exceptions) can run E10 without problems and the fuel flex cars made to run E85 are really only a poor compromise at best for E85. Sure a Fuel Flex car can change fuel ratio, and timing, but it really needs a higher compression ratio, something like 15:1 for fuel economy. It is the poor fuel economy of the fuel flex vehicle, that puts off the public.
