Everyone PLEASE CONTACT ME..NEVER USE E-85 IN2 CYCLE AND AIRCOOLED LAWN MOWER /TILLER ENGINES ./ rubber Fuel pump gaskets turn into mush and flood the crankcase with Gas AND MOISTURE! ,, FUEL PUMP GASKETS TURNED INTO MUSH AND Same rubber type carburator ACCELERATOR PUMP gaskets on my 1975 330 Ford Grain Truck ,. same occured on my 1986 /318 Dodge fuelLIFT pump.. And my 1987 350 Chevy in tank fuel pump,, and the electric fuel LIFT pump on my 300 Massey combine ... All of this happened to me in SUMMER OF 2010 ,(PERHAPS THE SUPPLEER OF E-85 ADDED A KILLER SOLVENT LAST SUMMER ??) iF i COULD GET A RELIABLE GASKET MAKER THAT CAN HANDLE E -85 I WOULD CONTINUE USING E-85 in above engines ,BECAUSE E-85 WILL RUN IN THOSE ENGINES JUST LISTED ... I started out some 5 yrs ago using e-85 blended with gas that acheived e-40 + ,, All RAN WELL WITH LITTLE ADJUSTMENTS NEEDED OTHER THAN COLD NATURED STARTS requiring choke .. I THINK THAT IF I WOULD HAD STAYED BELOW E-50 BLEND all would still be ok . but IN THE LAST 3 YRS i pushed up to e-85 on everything . and the gaskets failed causing a nitemare.. HOWEVER THERE IS SUCCESS... THIS WORX SINCE THERE ARE NO RUBBER PARTS TO DESTROY... currently i use e-65 +blend in my dailyrunner 730 case feeding tractor,,. i tarp the radiator to build heat quikly,, 730,dc ,sc AND vaC CASE Starts easily... in all below zero temps events this winter i have added regular gas to improve cold natured and easier starts .. ALL LAST SUMMER THESE TRACTORS BURNED E-85 JUST FINE .. SO FAR SO GOOD ,ya can learn from my failures .. ...email is open leave your ph# if you need to talk ...
