No moisture at all can get in. As E85 is water soluble if moisture or water gets in it, it will go bad over time.E85 FTW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it would be good to run it all the time. How long have you been running it for JET??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
