Daily Driving e85

[smolpp1]

Hi all. Longtime viewer, first time poster. I have decided to get my car away from a "instagram build" and build it into something I want.

With that being said.. I drive a 2018 5.0 pp1. It is still my daily, but I was thinking about going e85. I heard the 2018+ didn't need injectors for e85, also I drive about 30 miles one way to work. Any insight on this would be helpful and how often would I have to fill up?

Ive had my 21 on e85 daily for 30k miles. No issues. Getting about 260 miles per tank

I want to say I get about 16-17 highway on E85, however most of the time I'm on E85 I'm driving locally so I don't go on long distance drives on E85 that often.

Weekly is about right at that mileage. But the power from e85 tune alone transforms the car. Add long tubes for even more. And correct no injector changes required.

It's not the fuel causing your 02 sensor failures.

Wednesday I drove about 30 miles out and then 30 back for an alignment. All highway basically. 17 mpg.

Sensors aren't angled, so it would be worse on them.

3 sensor failures in 1 year, angled or not, is not the fuel. Trust me.

So what are the possibilities?

Thanks for the info. Most of my driving will be highway as well. Get 21 now. Dropping to 17 isn’t terrible
