I'm considering E85 but know very little, so I'm looking for some advice.

I was told that a flex tune is what I want if I'm worried about realizing I'm low on fuel in an area that doesn't have E85. And that with one, I can run any blend of E85 and 93 and the car will learn and adapt. Do I understand that right? So I can get down to a quarter-tank of E85 and just fill it up with 93 and it'll be fine?

Will I need to upgrade fuel injectors? I think most people go to 47-lb injectors, correct? Are there any particular brands to favor, or avoid?

Will the stock fuel pump be fine, or need to be replaced?

What else should I know, or is there any other advice you can share?

Thanks!
