possible problem...E85 93 and water
whats goin on guys...i just filled up about an hr ago, drivin around i felt my truck start running a little rough and acted just how it did 2weeks ago when i filled up with bad gas...well now my question is can i run sea foam with E85? or will that mess something up? i know its alright with conventional fuels but ive never heard anything with it being used on e85...also i think i mightve fucked up the 20% mix of E85, due to the cold i wanted to fill my tank to full even though i was on half tank...after fighting with the retard at the counter i put a full 7 gallons in thinking i was almost empty...could this ratio mess my motor up? if so whatre my options? drain the tank?
thanks in advance

Don't go WOT... the MAF should compensate some for the fuel mixture while cruising. As far as the sea foam i don't know if its safe or not. I would imagine it would be okay but don't take my word for it.

fatal def i think im gonna limp this tank like ya said, specially with how shitty its running...n blackgmc i filled up at half tank instead of almost dry,so there were probably 3.5 gallons of E85 in it, then from half tank up i added another 7 gallons and topped the rest off with 93, so its probably in the 28-30% range, as for ur 2nd questioni talked to justin at bbp, asking him about E85 tune next summer, he told me i could run 15-20% with having to retune. i figured id give it a try n wanted to experiment, suprisingly it runs a lot smoother than it ever has, call me crazy but it seems a little better also. as for no internals...thatll be changed soon...as for that link thanks man definitley has some good info in it
