E85 Myths and Truths, Jeep Tops, & Manual Transmission Swap - Stacey David's Gearz S13 E8

With the e85 market and flex fuel vehicles growing every day, Stacey dives into the myths and truths that surround ethanol and whether or not it’s a good choice for your vehicle. With a little help from Advanced Fuel Dynamics, Stacey installs a new fuel delivery system on a 2017 Mustang to show just how easy it is to up your performance and keep your engine safe at the same time. After that, Stacey and the crew head out west to tell the story of Bestop and how they’ve been making removable Jeep tops for decades. From rock-crawlers to the mall crawlers, Bestops unique past allows us to see what the future of the Jeep world will be. Finally, if you’re trying to decide between a stick or automatic transmission… hang out for a while as Stacey talks about converting your boring automatic to a lively manual transmission. We’ve got all this and more on GearZ!

The problem with soft top is that people love to tear up your soft top just for fun, or to get to your personal belongings, this isn't Mayberry RFD and Sesame Street

E85 is great for power but not for fuel economy and with todays gas prices people see the cheaper e85 and will use that but still wonder why they are always at the pump. I try and tell them that it has a higher octane like 104 but it won’t work as a regular gas gallon.

although stacey david failed to inform you that , your vehicle must be equipped with ETHANOL COMPLIANT FUEL HOSES , ethanol itself is corrosive to aluminum and just eats older style non-compliant rubber fuel hoses , clogs up injectors , plus your ECM must be programmed for ethanol fuels ,

I drove a limo that was compatible with E-85 fuel, but the gas mileage went down about 15 %,so I wouldn't use it

My car isn't set up for E-85 fuel

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

Today E-85 fuel is only about .50 cheaper per gallon in 2023, so E-85 fuel isn't really cost effective

Seams to work only if you have a car with multi port fuel injection. Won’t work on older cars with tbi

This video is twenty three minutes long. Twenty of those are advertisement for LMC Truck, Cornwell Tools, and other people who apparently own Stacey David's soul.
Infomercials suck.

All shows are commercials. Some are a little more subtle than others. And not everyone knows who makes these products.
