Hi all been doing a search for an e85 tester today and figured I may as well search for new servos with this liquid gold in my area in victoria, the last time i did a search was not so long ago so didn't expect to find many if any at all and bang Iv'e got a united servo with e85 5 min from me so I rang them to check that they do stock it and they said they do but have only had it for about a week lol

So now I will no longer need the flex fuel from caltex unless I can't get it from united so very happy with this development as I'll be doing my full tune in about a week so I can tune with out the need to worry about varying levels of ethanol since it's coming from united and not caltex having said that the flex fuel is still very very good, I'll still be buying a tester tomorrow from speed pro in dandy as always good to keep an eye on the quality ;-)

So here's all the united ones that as of today's search are selling E85

[Matt]

Only one on the central coast ffs? Id be keen to switch if there was more

[Alex]

I would love to take the Legacy off of daily duties and switch to E85. But Sydney is total ass in terms of availability.

[Richo]

much the same over here too. You can get it by the 200ltr drum, but thats about it.

Did Benny put it on fb?

He sure did, I'm pretty sure it's the one near Brock and Katie's old place.

[Scuba-Roo]

Oh yeah they have just recently opened up again, it's been a construction site for ages

Hi all found an e85 fuel tester at my local speed pro performance shop in dandenong so went down there and grabbed a couple today for just under 25 bucks each including gst
here's a pic would be cheaper from ebay but I don't want to wait ;-)

I hope with all the e85 commos coming out more servos start stocking it?!

Ill be right on it if they do

[Matt]

Do those testers just separate the fuel by leaving it for a while? Than show the percentage of ethanol?

[Matt]

Caltex servos with e85

United servos with e85

Hopefully caltex picks up the pace and puts a few more around

[Niko]

So.... E85 is safe? Its apparently 105 octane. What tuning do i need to run it? Or can i just throw it in the tank?

Im out of the loop on this one guys.

[Matt]

As far as i know, you need some plumbing changed to nylon or something...and yes you need a tune, though it burns cooler so you can add more timing etc
