Can you tell a difference between the E85 and regular?
I miss my corn gas…Absolutely. The E85 makes it a lot peppier but the mpgs suffer a bit. I'm okay with it, knowing what to expect.
Update, first long road trip after removal of the deflector... no more windshield air noise at 75 anymore. Best mod ive ever done lolEdit. No hail dents so that is nice. Pulled the Stampede bug/rock deflector off of it. Not sure if looks right now....View attachment 398611
What did I say!Idler arm w/bracket and pitman arm came in early Saturday. Swapped them both out, got it aligned on Sunday. Was told I need to replace the guide pins as they where damaged, so need to get those ordered and get another alignment.
Also replaced the rear brakes cause they were squealing really bad, turn out the driver inner pad had uneven wear and the indicator was scratching the disc. All done now, let see what she decides for me to fix next.
There's 2 places that sell Corn gas here in the Shreveport area, but mine isn't Flex-Fuel. Flex-Fuel wasn't an option until 2002, and I have a 2001.I miss my corn gas…
