Gasohol would have less energy per gram than Gasoline. which is why E85 or flex fuel cars get better mileage with regular gasoline than E85 gas. it is also why some gas stations have "better gas" than others. some companies put more ethanol in their regular gas than others, all while staying under the 10% limit regulated by law.


Can E85 ethanol and regular unleaded gas be mixed?

Regular gasoline can be used in an E85 vehicle, but E85 cannot be used in a vehicle that wasn't designed for it. Why? Bascially moving E85 creates a static charge, so the gas system needs to be mostly plastic to reduce the risk of sparking (plastic fittings, tubes, etc).

With the 5.4L Triton V8, you can use regular gasoline or E85. A vehicle that is compatible with regular gasoline and E85 is called Flex Fuel. With the 6.2L 'Boss' V8, the only fuel option is regular gasoline. But, I soon see Ford making this 6.2L 'Boss' V8 Flex Fuel capable. The 6.2L V8 in Super Dutys is Flex Fuel, so no doubt it's probably coming for the F-150 SVT Raptor.
