[Diy_efi] Is E85 worth it?

[Charles Woock]

More alcohol means less mileage.  I think the goal of this fuel is simply to 
reduce the "appearance" of the cost.  I don't have hard facts but I think in 
the long run the cost to operate may be slightly less... Until there is an 
abundance of E85, then "they" will raise the price on that fuel as well.
