I think you should ask yourself, "Where am I going to buy E85", not if it will work.....

Perhaps you've got that answered, but I seem to remember that most of the E85 in the US is in the corn belt (Oklahoma and northward). Having just blasted back and forth across the top end of Florida this weekend, I can tell you there is no E85 being sold on I-10. Perhaps there is down state---I am not aware of it if that's the case.

The engineering answer is E85 is no bargain, octane rating or not, so I am told.

Knock sensors, cut back on the timing, octane additive......maybe those are better solutions.....maybe?
