And not adequately cleaning the system and tank prior to running E85. Same probs can be seen with falcons, if the system isnt cleaned first. We all know that the ethanol content WILL PURGE YOUR SYSTEM.Still amazes me to this day how people can be so shocked, when the filter fails, lines crack, gunk appears....That's the ethanol doing what it does. A THOROUGH system clean will prevent a lot of this happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
