Does anyone out there know if you can safely run a KV6 motor on E85 fuel, and if so what is needed to do so?

My old car runs on standard petrol. But where I can I put 98 in it. The car does not have any more power, but I do get longer range out of the tank. At the end of the day it costs about the same price per km as the car is using less petrol.

A few years ago did a trip to Brisbane on standard petrol, then a year later, on 98 & 1 tank 95. It's not a scientific test by any stretch of the imagination, but if anything, the car was more economical running on 98, & other benefits I get even though the car doesn't have more power, it does feel a bit more responsive, & the other benefit with 98 is you are not putting crap fuel in the car.

Engines need to be converted to run on E85. Talk to these people Welcome to Aussie Ethanol Conversion Kits (http://www.flexfuelkits.com.au/)
