I have found it to cost about the same as 98 once the lower price is taken into account. Caltex sell their E-Flex for 20c less than unleaded. Cheapest power upgrade I have done as I already had the supporting mods.

A Walbro pump and seimens deka injectors (for the neo motors) wont set you back more than $600 but you will need some way tuning it.

The ethanol will strip clean the fuel system so you would need to change the filter after the first few tanks. Ive been running it for 8 months now with no issues with the stock fuel system.

what are you using to account for the variations in ethanol %?

i was reading it can fluctuate anywhere from 50% to 85% hence there being e-flex and e85

Thanks Brendan, but I'm north and it's not worth going all that way just to run the tank empty by the time I get home :P

According to the Caltex web site Salisbury Park and St Marys stock eflex too, but I guess its a practical thing - whats the point in running eflex if it's that hard to get?

I have two Caltex servos conveniently close to me... is it that hard to put an eflex pump in?

I'm guessing Liberty have their own fuel supplies, and it seems they don't have 100 octane, highest is 98.

They told me late June/July they should be replenished. Fingers crossed!

Hi all,

I am at athelstone, SA.

Any info on when/if they will be re-selling E10 100 octane?

Surprised at the advice that they can't get the ethanol, as Liberty are still selling the 94 octane E10 unleaded.

Cheers,

Adrian

E10 100oct is now back in stock at United servo pooraka. Been waiting a couple months for it. I'm running it in our M35 and now I can use high boost setting in my 180sx now that it's back.

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
