Finished up a tank of E30@42.7. FE is hanging in there. Will be running E50 this tank to expedite before cooler weather sets in. Everything is running normal, timing advance 1 more degree at cruise. The SG has under reported the MPG on last tank .1 and this tank .2 gallons. Wondering if that has any thing to do with the E85 blend? Couple more tanks and I'll check/change the fuel filter. |
Looking good so far! I just filled my Sable with a E-30 concoction, I was looking at the pump and noticed it said.....( minimum 85% ethanol) So... could be even more ? In the summer? could be E-90. My car didn't like E-15 0r E-20, so we will see if it likes E-30.

Just drove a little over 200 miles on E-30 Same driving as I normally do, 32.23 mpg. that is pretty good, Maybe 1 to 2 mpg less than E-10.
When I used E15 and E-20 my mpg dipped into the 20's so E30 is better. I think maybe my ECU can't compensate and the car is running a little lean. It did feel kinda sluggish. |
I find that the more ethanol I consume, the worse my FE becomes :( .

Just filled. This tank of E50 was 41.17. Filled with E85 this time. Not bad considering the tank included emissions testing(don't get me started on jiffy lube) and several more night commutes than normal. On the next tank I'll change the filter and go with new plugs one range cooler then I'm running now. Still no CEL ignition timing did not change this tank. Status as of now.
E15 44.0 E20 43.2 E30 42.7 E50 41.2 |
Just sort of a slow decline in mpg. not too bad really. Have you tried straight gas with no ethanol? E-85 this tank? you are a brave man!:cool:
