The E-85 fuel itself is not consistent, (out of the pump). Anywhere between 62% and 87% ethanol content is allowed and a variance can be expected.

If you have the ability to check your fuel and keep it the same ... it will run consistent.

Buying it by the barrel should alleviate that issue and also help avoid paying the road tax on it as well saving a few more bucks.
