I don't think you can buy the E85 in bulk without a licence. And yes, you need to use it fairly quickly as it does go off - I'm not exactly sure on the technical side of things, but the warmer it gets the worse it is to use. So keep it in a cool dry place.

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 8m 30d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 02/11/09 10:23 AM Share Posted 02/11/09 10:23 AM I would not bother as PULP is a better all round fuel and E85 is not race fuel it is 85% ethanol blended with ULP.If you want real race fuel you would need to get ELF or Shell Race (if it still exists) that has over 101RON.Also storing 44gallons of fuel can be dangerous and could cause issues with insurance and council.Why are you so keen on E85 ?

I want to find this United 100 that everyone is talking about. Is there any in Brisbane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
