QUOTE (richee3 @ Jun 7, 2011 - 9:22 PM)  It'll drop gas mileage by more than 10%, I can tell you that right now. We have a 2010 Silverado that is averaging 17.1 mpg on regular and 10-12 on E85. If it only lost 10%, it would still do better than 15 mpg. Illinois law requires a 10% blend of ethanol, and I get a steady 23 mpg in my IS 300. However, when I fill up in Indiana or Kentucky, I can easily get 25. Needless to say I'm not a big fan of ethanol. But I'm very curious to see if mixing E85 and regular fuel gets you the results you want since I'll have a BEAMS soon. did you actually read my whole post??? ya but your silverado is running 10-12 gallons of e85 right?? I only plan on mixing 3-4 gallons max of e85 and the rest with 10 gal of 91 octane. You'll be fine with the 93 octane over in your beams motor. I"ve read that some octane are better than others. 94-95 octane is equal to 100 ron depending on the gas station. I just visited a 76 station and it said this gas contains up to 10% ethanal. Then I went to a Chevron I saw that nothing as listed on the pump, so I guess that chevron didn't?? -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts
