For cereal? Good news for the big power cars. I won't be spending up on suitable fuel system compnents as it's a daily (plus maxed 42lb injectors) but who knows what the future may bring.

Oooh this may explain why the weeks of work on the Caltex in Balcatta and a few others I've seen lately?

If going to E85 it's a very good idea to have all hoses and fittings triple checked for compatibility, refer to the recent KPM debacle with in tank anti surge pots splitting hoses that were supposed to be ethanol compatible.

Also Simon grenaded an engine in one of his own cars a few years back when E85 was fairly new on the Ford scene, in line fuel filter swelled up and blocked from memory. Some external surge tanks have had lines perish running ethanol.

I'd talk to XFT about it if I was going to run E85 and see what he says!

Hoping someone can help me out, need to borrow a couple rims/tyres. Size/tread doesn't matter, just need something basically my car to sit on in the garage while I wait for mine to be repaired.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry I'm guilty of just lurking lately and not posting much!!

A set of car stands are about $30-$40 from supetcheap or repco.
