Should find you a place. In little ol' Winona we've got 3 places to get it so
I'm sure if you're in Minnesota it shouldn't be that hard to find.

I ran a 50-50 mix of E85 and 93 octane over the weekend just for giggles to
see what it would do to the fuel trims and how my car would react. Nothing
too surprising, the fuel trims rose a little bit.

What I am curious about is how E85 and our stock O2 sensor (and ECU)
affect one another. Open loop won't be hard to figure out but in closed loop
will the fuel trims be happy once the car is richened up to 9.7:1 or 10.5:1 or
whatever stoich works out to be for E85. With DSMLink I would assume this
would be possible with the global slider.

Or am I missing something?
