can an '06 take E85 fuel?

Can I run E85 in my '06?

I would have to say no simply because it is not advertised to be able to do so...

you need a different filter to run e85 correct?

[exodus]

anything over 10% will probably clog up the filter and possibly chew through non-silicon fuel lines.

You also need high compression to get any respectable power from e85... turbo would be recommended.

have you tried? i want to hear from someone that tried this and if it messes up the car what did it do?

You need an adaptor kit. and a tune to make it worth while but your gas mileage will go down.

Also, it won't clog your filter. Almost all of the local gas stations have 15% and the gto is fine w/ it.

ummm 15% vs 85% EtOH are worlds apart...

Nope... I haven't... Wouldn't want to risk ruining a car just to see if it worked... I have converted a Diesel Engine Car to run Cooking Oil, but that's it...

I wouldn't even want to run E85. Less milleage, more land dedicated to fuel instead of food drives prices of food up. Screw ethanol. The only place I want ethanol is in my belly

didnt you hear we can clone food so we dont need land lol but anyway you would need bigger injectors to i believe, i know a few k-series guys doing highcompression all motor builds using e85 but they needed to use a lot bigger injectors because it takes more fuel to run
