Alright here's my situation, I am out of e85 maybe 1/3 tank left ...

None for a ways away!

So what will happen if I put in regular gas to get my car to the tuner?

I'm sure I would be getting more fuel than I need but with a return style should that really be a concern? I would only run maybe I tank at most

Thanks in advance!

Bad idea. Just tow it don't be a cheap ***

That was the original plan I was just wondering what would happen? Thought maybe I could save having it towed, o well. What would happen, not that I'm goin to do it

i would either trailer it or take a few jugs and fill up with E85...are you not having it tuned on e85?

No... 93 and torco. . Only e85 station in southern CO is 2 hours away!

I would get 2 more 55 gallons of e85 but that doesn't help me... I still can't drive from town to town, can't even go to the lake and back on a tank which is only hour away , everybody races about a hour away so if I wanted for drive and race I couldn't even make it there and back on a full tank,...so I can't drive to the track,...unless you have e85 in cities surrounding you home town it sucks!

If the tune is already set up for e85, then the engine will run about 25-30% rich on gasoline. Not a good thing. Better than lean, but still not a good thing. Plan on replacing the plugs as soon as you get to the tuners.

To get an accurate tune, you'll need to have either e85 or e10 (pump gas) in the tank. You can't mix them. If you mix it half and half, you'll have something like e55. Your tune will be way off and useless for either pump gas or e85.

Since you can't get e85 where you live, you should reconsider that option.

I have a car that uses e85 on the track (road course) and pump gas on the street. But I have two separate tunes, and change the tune as I need to. And I completely drain the tank when I switch over. It's a small hassle, but it works.
