That article is clearly the result of advertising $$$. The whole thing looks like it was wrote up by their marketing department. It's so obvious that I cannot believe how nobody mentioned it before me.
Installation took 20 minutes? Are you kidding? Have you guys even looked to see where injectors are? I dare any V6/V8 owner to do this in 20 minutes, as the injectors are often buried inside the V, underneath the intake manifold, air intake, wire harness, etc. It takes me a couple hours just to change my spark plugs as they are buried in the V. The injector harness would require even more digging. Even most 4 cylinder's injectors are under the intake manifold, out of reach. This is not something for the typical DIY mechanic.
Increase in performance? [censored]! We all know E85 has less energy density than gasoline. The only way to create power is to take advantage of E85's higher octane. Without increasing compression or adding boost once can only accomplish this with timing. While modern closed-loop operation can make adjustments to AFR based on O2 sensor input, timing is generally pulled off a map (based on sensor inputs and sometimes base timing) and only adjusted (retarded) when the knock sensor detects preignition. Without tuning the engine yourself, you'd see a decrease in both mileage and power output.
The author attributes the increased power to 105 octane. Absolute [censored], 105 helps no more than premium does in a car recommended for 87 unleaded. Doesn't make the combustion more efficient, stable, controlled or whatever adjective you care to use; just harder to ignite. He makes mention of harder to start, but misses the reason why. It has nothing to do with fuel delivery as he states.
All told he actually had a 12% increase in mileage by using LUBRILON. It reduces engine friction to increase gas mileage. [censored], what have I been missing all these years of owning automobiles? This would really help in my 50 mile commute back and forth each day! What a crock of $#!%.
Then he suggests taking the 17% of corn allocated for export and turning it into renewable fuel. Sounds great on paper, but way to add to our already grossly enormous trade deficit!
It is outrageous to think anyone believes this stuff!
