quick food for thought. regular fuel has contained ethanol since the late 70's since then fuel systems have been ethanol compatable, perhaps not in the concentrations that E85 represents but engineers don't tend to design things so that they're partially compatable The type of alcohol that is associated with corrosion problems is METHANOL like you see used in top fuel dragsters. fuel grade ethanol has corrosion inhibitors in it.
there's a subaru guy I know that's been running E85 for over 100k now and hasn't run into a single problem
