Just remember to add a fuel additive that lubricates the system every few fillups.

What do you recommend?
I've been using MMO (marvel mystery oil)...once every 3rd or 4th fill it gets 4 ounces of the MMO.

If our fuel system was designed for ethonal I wouldn't worry, but it's not. I swear it quiets the ticking from the cam driven fuel system.

Only thing I make sure to do when filling up, put the corn in first so it's mixed up some by the addition of the regular fuel.

Our Bosch system components are e85 rated. In fact the twin force prototype ran on and was rated for e85.

Looking at our components vs bosch's flex fuel "system" the only difference seems to be ecm programming and a smaller fuel rail which I assume helps keep frp up.

The one part I've had a hard time referencing is the lpfp. I doubt they'd use the entire Bosch system minus the low pressure pump but then again, its Ford.

That being said, a top tier fuel should keep you in good shape. I've ran blends from 10 % to absurd and everything is good. No noise, no pump performance degradation, nothing. The 2013 saw over 25k of various e usage.

Now that I've said that my hpfp will probably explode and rip a hole in the space -time continuim....lol.

Next on my list of chemicals to play with is Archoil.....maybe a comparo with the MMO is in order, haven't used that stuff in a loooooong time.
