Message	Its an interesting topic. It would take some digging (I know because I did it) but last week I was looking back through some of my posts from ~5 years ago and I asked the question about switching to E85 and 95% of the responses where "why would you want to do that" It is great to see its becoming more and more popular. My chief complaint with it has been cold starts, however I have spent some time the last few weeks in my car as it has been FREAKING cold here in the midwest. I ran a test on cold start at ~20F the other day and the engine lit and ran on the third crank which was a miracle. lol
