My plaz fuel lines with my surge I noticed are starting to perish and I thought I might as well get e85 rates hose if I decide to go e85 down the track. As much as I would love to go back through 44 pages can someone tell me what rating is suitable for e85? I messaged Kev to see if he can supply me with the 5 pieces I require but if I can order it locally through supercheap ect I might do that...

The hose that I used on old setup was called gates barigade green shield flex fuel compatible, I bought it from Motorsport connection, an I'm sure that repco an order it as we'll. Edited by CCCC

Given I chop and change between towns, one with eflex and one without I was just going to stick to a 98 tune due to issues of having to drain fuel when I change over every time I live one town for the other.

I've been thinking and from what I gather the main problem is on the 98 tune if there is a few litres of eflex in the tank it will run the risk of leaning out and going boom. What is the chance of increasing the afr's on the 98 tune to say 12.5-13 (or higher?) in order to compensate. Ideally it would be best to run a wideband and eboost to keep an eye on things but I didn't realise how expensive they are.

Most likely going to stick to 98 so this is more of a theoretical question, but just curious as to whether someone has done this/whether it could actually work
