I'm reading the current administration is proposing E-15 as the standard for gasoline (CT standard is E-10).
Has anyone with a Gen 1 or 2 had issues with it?
Our cars predate the first FFV models.

Has anyone created a list of what needs to be changed to accommodate E-15?

While I can't answer specifically for the early SHO, I have a 1986 SVO that we run e85 in and didn't have to change any of the fuel lines.

That's good to know, and I assume all OEM lines and not random rubber ones.
Post 2008, anything else before is a crapshoot, anything from the nineteen hundred eighty’s is most likely good ‘ol fashion rubber.

Yes, all of the original lines are rubber, except for the lines from the regulator to the rail in the SVO, which are hard plastic and like to break. Mainly, I'm just saying I don't think E15 should be an issue.
