I've never heard that ethanol is corrosive to aluminum or steel though, and I doubt that the problems you'd face would ever go beyond the fuel system, if even that was a problem.

I forget the exact reason why but lexus had to do alot of recalls on their AL fuel rails. I am pretty sure it was due to ethanol. My brother-in-law had about 100lbs of AL scrap :rofl:

from what i understand the e85 issues are mostly with the fuel system,lines,fpr components ext. but i have heard it can corrode aluminum if the improper alloy is used.

ya i think you guys are right i think it has more to do with the fuel lines than anyting else. I didnt know you could get fuel system parts that are specifically for alchol from the aftermarket. Thx for that info guys
