E85 in a regular engine?
Not recommended. E85 (flex fuel) engines are modified engines that allows the use of flex fuel. E85 is less potent then standard gas so more fuel (up to 34%) is needed to be injected into the cylinders to retain the car's power. Flex fuel cars have electronic fuel injectors, that can sense the E85 gasoline and increase the amount injected into the chamber. If you put E85 fuel into a standard engine, u will experience a significant reduction in power, and possibly doing harm to your engine. E85 fuel is good in a since that it burns cleaner and emits less emissions but because more fuel is needed to be injected, it produces lower fuel economy numbers.
What does the ethanol blend e85 consist of?
E85 is an ethanol blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. It is primarily used as fuel for flex-fuel vehicles, which are designed to run on a range of ethanol-gasoline blends. E85 is considered a renewable fuel source and offers certain environmental benefits, but its use may result in reduced fuel efficiency compared to gasoline.

Can you use E85 in an 07 Vibe?
NO! As far as I know the Vibe is NOT a Flex Fuel vehicle. If it is Flex Fuel and can burn E85 it will have a label affixed to the vehicle somewhere. Do NOT use E85 in a non Flex Fuel vehicle.
What type of fuel does the F-150 SVT Raptor use?
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.
What could happen if you put diesel fuel in a flex fuel engine?
Flex fuel does not mean you can use diesel. It means the engine can run on pure gasoline or on E85 gasoline. If you put diesel in this vehicle it simply will not run. Diesel can only be used in a diesel engine.
