joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 lol... just wondering how everyone else's car idles? mine is a bit rough until its 100% up to temp, and then it still wont hold as much as pulp... not sure if it's the tune or the fuel... we only really threw a quick tune at it, pretty much just looked at the top end so as not to kill it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/239271-guilt-toy-now-running-on-e85/page/28/#findComment-4466969 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilt-Toy Posted March 12, 2009 Author Share Posted March 12, 2009 Sure, the servo is 1000 kay away. maybe i can help with distributing the stuff. the guy who has the servo at rozelle seems to be a nice guy. i could ask him if he would be interested in helping ship the stuff out.

One of our time attack sponsors is a fuel distributor up here GT, They are looking in to it atm but if they dont come through I will look at ideas from there. I have been interested in this stuff for a couple of years and it pisses me that they grow it up here and ship it past us to you guys down south.

NYTSKY Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 SHOCKING NEWS!!! E85 will no longer be available from the bowser!!! Went to both Enhance servos and they said E85 wont be available until further notice. Apparently the bowsers are calibrated for petrol (derr) But due to E85s different chemical makeup the calibration gets thrown out of whack. So 1L is not exactly 1L. The petrol companies have brought this to the governments attention, so from now on E85 is only available in 200L drums. And get this, the price is $500 per drum (due to extra shipping and handling costs) Farkin pisses me off!! There is a petrolchemical company that can supply the drums but at $2.50/L and at $500 at a time i think ill parking the car until i can get some sort of hard evidence that this is all true. Ill keep you all posted. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/239271-guilt-toy-now-running-on-e85/page/28/#findComment-4475909 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYTSKY Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 WTF! fark off!is this united aswell? I would say so. I think its a bloody conspiracy. Now that people have shown that cars can run on this stuff with no problem, and making big ponies with it. The petrol companies are scared that this will affect their bottom line seeing as only 15% of petrol being used. Pisses me off to the max if this turns out to be the case!!!
