My GT is a thirsty girl. You could say she's an alcoholic. She guzzles E85 like it's going out of style. 96 miles to E on a full tank. And this hasn't been reset for several tanks.

Dang! You aren’t really getting 96 miles on a tank are you? Mine shows anywhere between 240-269 miles to empty when I fill up on E85. Do you think a KAM reset might fix that?

Man, I could get 200-220 on a highway cruise with an e85 tune which is 14mph, but 7mph aint surprising on track or driving hard.

NO, he has a procharger and a heavy right foot :like:
Bingo. I'll reset in the morning and check my highway mileage to the track.

E85 Ethanol is a primary alcohol, Alcohol powered motor requires bigger jetting, higher injector flow ............. hurting MPG. Burns fast just takes more of it to make power.

A heavy consumer of ethyl alcohol, eh? Hmm, hence my license plate:

Hello; If memory serves it has higher octane rating but lower energy density per gallon than gasoline.

E85 is equivalent to about 100-110 octane and depends on the quality of the E85 and about 30+% loss in mileage. But, high performance engines love it.

What's the X at the end of the formula mean?
"Alcohol-eks" -> Alcoholics. A bit of an irony since my car consumes prodigious amounts of alcohol while the driver has been on the wagon for many years.
