 Gas prices are too high! What about E85?, Anyone have experience running E85 in their 914? |

QUOTE(StarBear @ Oct 13 2026, 06:15 AM)  QUOTE(Osnabruck914 @ Oct 11 2026, 09:16 PM) Frankly, owning and operating a 914 is a luxury to begin with. Spending a little more on the proper fuel (non-ethanol in my case) is just part of owning that luxury. If money was a concern to feed the car with the right fuel, I would ditch the luxury. My opinion and nothing else implied. Osnbruck914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Yes. Of course the joy that is driving a 914 is not just about the fuel cost. But, E85 is about half the cost of gasoline these days. It's also higher octane, less prone to knock, renewable, etc. Give that old 914 some boost, a tune and E85 and you might just enjoy it even more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . If it was only a question of the cost, we'd only drive our EV with the "free" (not counting the sunk cost of a PV system) electrons we harness from the sun we capture with solar panels on the roof.
