I sure am glad that where my Yukon lives in Wyoming, E85 doesn't exist.
Plenty of pure gas but zero E85. :)

One of my sisters has a 2008 Silverado 5.3l and if you run E85 for more than a few tanks of gas it will throw a cat code.
Run a few tanks of regular gas through it and the code goes away.
I've run mine on (nearly exclusively) e85 for the last 83,000mi. Never had a cat code on this vehicle. But I did have that o2 sensor issue where the computer reads the ethanol content far lower than it is and it throws a lean code.
But they were aftermarket sensors that works properly for a year or so before that.

Passed ca. Smog with 1 sensor not set and BB tune installed @BlackBearPerf
Fyi
Well, BB tunes I'm sure do not come with a carb E.O. Sticker/Number, so that gives me hope for my trans tune and oversized tires this next go around. Last time I waited till the last minute to get the smog done so I didn't want to dick around and I put the stock tune back on to ensure that I passed.

But this next go around, I'll try it without messing with anything. And then I will know I could get away with having a cam and DOD delete.

I had it tested with the tune on just to see what would happen, passed no problem

I wanted to check mine because in 21 california started checking the vehicles for illegal tunes, I am certain this will mostly apply to Diesels since the epa is on them like stink on a rotten egg


I think the epa is finally realizing even the oem can't make power with a diesel without crazy amounts of NOx. even though they said they could with Def lol. still trash oily fuel in = trash burn no mater how high tech.

I haven't done that one but it is up under the center/drivers side probably a pita to get done, upside down, maybe get a lawn chair or something to lay on up against a open drivers door, lay down and reach up from under the pedals, I don't think you have to pull the dash unless the door is broken

I've been waiting for a good reason to buy one of those under dash creepers.

sounds like a good excuse
