Many frequently asked questions are answered by the Wikipedia entry for E85:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E85

Several of our regular posters here at E85Forum.com have contributed content and editing (and a big thanks to them! As a gentle reminder: keep the Wiki as unbiased as you can; we don't want it reported as biased).

If you made one of the major contributions to the E85 article in wikipedia you might want to review the article periodically.

Your contribution is somewhat perishable.

I noticed today, that one of the references I listed in the body of the article was removed when someone edited it only days after the entry was made, so for almost 2 months the addition I added was unsupported by references.

The document also needs a review as a whole for cohesiveness and style but I simply do not have the time to do that.

It also needs some filtering/counter points to some PC and questionable content.

It would also be appreciated if some of our subscribers that live outside the U.S. add info regarding E85 availability and popularity in your country.

FWIW

Not sure if you are aware, but the Wikepedia article now claims E85 is only 94-96 octane and the the 105 claimed octane rating is incorrect.

No doubt written by someone that has never run E85 in a 13:1 compression engine Rolling Eyes

it has been mentioned on here in another thread - always going to be someone spreading crap instead of accurate info

you never see the people running e85 saying it has issues its always the people that hevent even run it stirring the pot
