[QUOTE="Willie, post: 16453619, member: 14133"] Hey J, happy you joined. I will do my best to keep this thread current. One of my friends is a devout e85 fan and we've started discussing this as of yesterday. It will be interesting to see what he ends up doing. I think I should list here all the pros and cons of both and let the people make an unbiased decision... What do you think? Thanks Bob. If things go well, I don't know how to even go about going down the patent trail, never having done it. Haven't you? UPDATE from last night. I was able to get in a little datalog time, between bands of rain. Not a full datalog, but sufficiently enough to see what I needed to see. The result is (drum roll) >> IT WORKS!!! For my first attempt, I chose fueling values in the tune based on.... nothing but an uninformed but educated guess. My AFR was so rich that the engine was sputtering. Actually, this was great because it told me it works. With that datalog, I recalculated much better values (I hope) and hope to try this today before it reaches 110 deg. I'm so excited about this I could not sleep well last night and got up really early this morning. It is sunny and plan on going out datalogging. Although last night was a success, I need to get a full rpm pass and try different fueling values in the tune to verify that I can adjust it (with no other changes). So far, this is looking very, very good. Willie [/QUOTE]
