HP/TQ difference with E85?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I posted that E85 carbons up things more just because some are dead set that ethanol will destroy the internal combustion engine. It is interesting, that the Ethanol Producers, themselves, have had a standing reward for anyone who can show documented proof of ethanol causing all the destruction in automobile engines that are made claim to in articles and on the net. No one has ever won the award. Sure, there have been problems, but they seem to revolve around owner/operator error. Like leaving a tank half full of E10 (or E85 for than matter), and letting it sit for half a year. Or storing E10 in ventilated fuel systems for extended lengths of time. And it was true, that early on, many times owners had to change fuel filters a few times because ethanol will loosen up the junk in a fuel system and clean it out. For those that are at least a few notches above a moron, and use some brain wave activity, ethanol will not be an problem. There are myriads of vehicles that have run on E10, and quite a few on E85, for their entire life cycle and last as long or longer than any other engine running on only gasoline.

 

Here is a quick little vid showing a simple example of various fuels emissions......
