Hi all, I posted a long while ago about how I was having dtcs as well as drivability issues when on e85 tune. Slowly since then I have used a 93 tune by Bama and a 93 tune from Brendspeed. Both had similar issues that threw codes for int control module torque perf issue as well as bank 2 rich...

Interesting, I never got a CEL when on the stock or 93 tune. Then again the fact that you're CEL doesn't come on makes me wanna scan mine to see if were experiencing the same codes with no CEL on. Have you felt any power loss on you're car at any point?

Got a response from bama today with a revision. I've switched back to 93 to not damage anything on the e85 tune since it wasn't dialed in, cars been happy back on the 93 tune. Still unsure if I'll try the new revision. Seems like a big hassle to switch back just for it to potentially do the same...

So was able to make a data log tonight, not a long one but one that shows the issue I have been having with the "blipping" when going into second. Towards the end of the data log I actually got the same codes come up that were coming up with the original e85 race tune 😩. I never got any response...

Bit of an update. I emailed bama asking how they wanted the data logs, haven't gotten anything back yet so I'm just waiting at this point. Part of me is just thinking I should just go back to 93 until I can get the lund e85 race/flex tune.

I've been reading up on how to data log on bamas support page, I did run into that link as well and bookmarked it. They haven't asked me how they prefer the log 😕. Only thing that sucks is I don't have a laptop, only a desktop, so I'm gonna have to log everything on the rev x then import it to...

Yeah gonna make some time tonight to data log the car. They did send me a tune revision last night, pretty much did the same thing when going from first to second. Is it a good idea to make two logs? Was thinking of recording one just going from first to second over and over so they can see...

Alright so far I've done a couple pulls with no issue. One thing I did notice is when I go into Second gear the car seems like its blipping, like if I'm taping the pedal when there preassure on it. When I let off and then give it gas it behaves normally again but it almost always does it when...

The test I did with the 5 gallon jug before filling up was just a smidge over the 85 line

Alright so filled up a new 5 gallon fuel container with e85 and ran my car down till it read 0 miles till empty. Filled her up with e and got the revised tune installed. 5 gallons got me to just under half a tank, ran that till I was under a quarter and filled up with more e, till just under 3/4...

Will do that for sure. Plus gives me a reason to buy a vp racing fuel container lol

Update: Bama did revise my e85 tune, only issue is I got half a tank if 93 to burn through before I switch. I also did inquire about a Flex fuel tune, still waiting to hear back.

Well it took a while for the test kit to get here but it's here. I made sure to get a new fuel jug so it's straight e85 from the pump. Tested the e from the same station and the results look to be around e83-e85, tested it about 5 times making sure to dispose of the mixture and starting over...

Yeah I'll definitely inquire about the Flex fuel tune from Bama once I am able to get back with them on the ethanol percentage. Aside from the issue I ran into the car ran beautifully, it's hard to back to 93 after experiencing that. I know people swear by the Lund tunes so part of me is...

Thanks for all the info, this being my fist run in with e85 I am trying to obsorb as much info as I can. I have ordered a test kit and hopefully I'll test it out this week when it comes in. I know you mentioned a Bama Flex fuel tune, do they make those on request? The only options I saw on...

Hello all, Recently switched to a BAMA e85 tune. After driving the car normally for a couple of days I got it to a quarter tank and filled again with e85, same station. When pulling in third, about 65mph, the car lost power and a little wrench popped up on my dash. When I scanned it for codes I...

No, you're right. I know Soulja4187 mentioned that too and I'm for sure gonna make sure to take it to the dealer before making any big decisions

Well nvm. Got home and the smell was present again.

Update: I drove the car to work today and there was no burning smell when I got out, my commute is 20 minutes if highway/city driving. I drove with the windows down so I can identify the smell and see what the conditions were when it starts to appear, but it never did. I got out and started...

Aside from the symptoms of a worn clutch, And of course the smell, the car accelerates fine for the most part. Is there any possibility of the clutch lasting another couple weeks, hopefully months, before the problems get more severe? If I had the money I'd order a new kit tomorrow but my dog...
