E85 and Emissions
 
Anybody passed emissions with E85?
Just wondering. That is one of the reasons I am converting. I'm hoping the 25%-15% gasoline doesn't mess things up.

since it is only 15 to 20 percent gas and ethanol is a much cleaner burning fuel it should be much easier to pass emissions

That's what I thought.
I think I will put the cat back on and use my Corvette air pump.
If it doesn't pass after that, I will sell my car!

Got my car to pass with flying colors!
E85 is the bomb!

It is my understanding that the emissions reduced are the ones being checked for. So basically you are just poluting with different polutants:).


Having said that, I cant wait to run E-85 in my car:icon_tup:


Good to hear you passed emissions.

I am so impressed by E85. Running 30 PSI now and it loves it!
This is on an upinned/doweled engine.
Have to get a new clutch because I am burning up the ACT Extremes now.
Going to a twin Clutch Master. The thing is gonna hook now!
