Not every owner is fussy as each other with their cars, some will put up with bad manners in the pursuit of power but tell every one how perfect their car is, some times trying to kid themselves other times is because they have no idea that it's not right that's why if you read my post earlier on, on this topic I have changed my tune back to 98 tune over winter, because of the hard starts in cold mornings, back to E85 in summer :good: sweet roll on summer!!

possum Donating Members 553 Member For: 15y 7m 3d Gender: Male Posted 14/06/12 09:04 PM Share Posted 14/06/12 09:04 PM Mine starts first go, no matter how cold, might be due to the higher fuel content in the eflex.Possum are the ones that are harder to start running the United?Most of the cars tuned at nizpro are on united and start first if not second go.Daves focus would always start first go on Eflex but now on united its slightly harder but no more than 2 go's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe e85 at Frankston is 90 like others + 5 degree night = bad mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it's meant to stay like that more a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
