my car is tuned on e85, i just finally got my pump in the right canister and put gas in the car to go tuning. well long story short halfway through tuning some weird **** started happening. i seen my ltft go down to -23 just to keep the car idleing without flooding it with gas then the next minute its fine. i get the sneaking suspision that they might have put gas in the e85 tank or the mix they got is fubar. what u think?
 


And im sure someone will mention vac leak which there is none my manifold pressure never changed. And i sprayed around

A quick google search suggests that they buy their fuel from marathon corp and bp, and sells it under the name ranger fuels. Anybody know if kwik trip is related to bp? thats the only other place i can get e85 at, and ill prolly drain my tank and refill.

I would look into the bp gas problem, but if you can prove it they will pay for, but it's gonna be a pullin teeth situation.
 
Yea it all doesnt make sense even with bad gas im not sure why at idle sometimes my trims would be fine no problems. Then a minute later af ratio drops to mid 11's and and my ltfts drop to -23 to try and compensate. I was watching my fuel pressure guage while it did it so i kno my fuel pressure wasnt fluctuating. Could an injector be sticking randomly?

well the bad gas is build up of something, they added to much of it, and possible mom n pop style station with water in the gas, all possible
