Man just made homemade e85

[@edwardnigma2216]

And three days later, all the rubber fuel lines and O-rings melted because the ethanol ate them.....

[@theeverydayguylcw9075]

Not all tractors are diesel, alot of the old small tractors like Olivier, was gasoline powered

[@jdtv...9134]

In order for it to work on that motorbike the jet size has to be increased. You need twice the volume. Should work perfectly fine just as ethanol in turbocharged and higher compression engines

[@jchase5158]

Soooo u made E80 instead of E85..........

[@jayflow7949]

Wooooow so the oil companies shut down their competitors the Alfa fuel even tho it’s far cleaner burns pure and doesn’t heat up it cools your engine you don’t even need a radiator on some cars!!!

[@fatnfurious9171]

Burns twice as much fuel also

[@dietznutz1]

High ethanol fuel destroys fuel lines and carburetors as well as binding to water over time

Very rough on 2 cycle engines! Out board motors !

@@johnm2617 that's where a high quality synthetic oil comes in acts as a fuel stabilizer too

[@RandomFandom1]

Put some oil in that mix

[@jeffnpatricia]

So turn your food to fuel ? Isn’t that what the body is for ?

[@roterakaten636]

And the whole your car cant run on ethanol unless it says so it's a lie. First off the military did research in the 70s and 80s to the tune of. Millions of dollars to figure out if this was viable for there motors. It was actually found to be better.
2ndly I drive a 2018 Subaru forester and run ethanol in it all the time no issues.
I also drive a 1989 chevy s10 2.5l L4 151 iron duke. Also eats ethanol with no issues. E10/e30/e85 tried em all. And it the only thing my 89 does lack like 10 hp. And takes a lil longer to get up to speed. But other wise I still get 20 mph anywhere in the city and 30+ on the highway

[@Rudy97]

You need much more ethanol compared to petrol. Have to tune the carb to run richer. Modern fuel injection is tuned for petrol only (unless specified otherwise) and the engine will not run well if at all.

[@kalebclemons]

he made below e80 and that bike wont run in a month without a ton of upgrade parts. ethanol is corrosive and binds to water. it destroys fuel lines and carbs, messes up all kind of things if ur entire engine and fuel system is made for it.
