A quick search finds me a megasquirt page that allows adjustments based on a flex-fuel sensor. Mainly for AFR's iirc, but it's a start.

Sewell thanks for that info. It sucks there's so much variability. Unfortunately since flex fuel cars adjust automaticly, nobody cares. Not until we see engines designed for ethanol-only. However that brings me back to a post I made in the fab forum - 16timer... 16 tunes on one chip. Not exactly viable for someone paying $600 per tune, but viable for diy'ers.

NP.   I'm just trying to spread info i've learned and seen first hand.

most good standalones have been letting people use the GM flex fuel sensors for a long time. Lots of overpaid princesses on bf.c using them with DTA/MS/AEM/varied euro noggery.

But since you can run more timing,

Required timing is a property of the fuel, and that a non iso-octane based fuel requires more timing is neither an advantage nor a detriment, merely an inherent property of that fuel.  As such, everybody needs to stop lumping it in with all these lists of benefits of E85, because it has nothing to do with anything like that.

OK

So you're saying you can run more timing?  :P
