Hey Chris, Ever sence I told you that your "included injectors" failed and I lost a motor, you haven't returned any of my many phone calls. What's up. Please dont give me any song and dance. Just call me. If you can't afford the call then tell me when I should call you.

I was curious about that statement too, cuz I heard that when injectors fails, they typically get stuck open, not closed. But I don't know enough about anything to say anything with certainty.

I think when Jason wrote that it wasn't clear.
Engine/coolant temps are actually controlled by the thermostat which means they will stay the same with or without E-85. What E-85 actually lowers is exhaust gas temperatures(EGTs) not engine coolant temps and this is due to the fact that alcohol combusts at lower temps than gas. It actually makes it hard to even reach 1000deg of EGT compared to gas when temps of up to 1500 are normal.
This translates into a cooler engine bay and less heat on adjacent components. Not to mention that if a specific radiator can control the heat generated by X amount of HP from an engine, switching to E-85 will allow the same cooling system to be able to handle the heat from a little more HP without overheating.
Best regards,
Chris

not only that but it has a higher specific heat of vaporization... so it sucks heat out much better than gasoline as it vaporizes, cooling the charge.
thats why no intercooler is used when burning methanol.

^^^ They wont because they can't. It's not just one or two customers that have had problems with their products. Have they worked out any of them with the people they have screwed? I can't belive that the peeps that run this fourm let them peddle their **** here. OOOH for the love of money i get it. I forgot they are one of their sponsers. My bad.
Still no phone call
