On this it is more pronounced closest to the fuel filter and least closest to the FPR. Who knows...

There is nothing in the fuel rail itself. Everything there looks clean. Also the top of the injectors look clean.

I am going to change my Fuel Filter anyway again just to make sure and we will see what happens.

I need to buy one of those E85 sensor so I can hook it up and drive whatever ratio I want. That way I can run a full tank of regular and clean this out every once in a while.

BTW, cleaned right up with fuel and popped them back in and everything is good.

Re: E85 Injector Issues... Anyone?

I'm real curious to see what my 1250 FIC injectors look like now after running them for a few thousand miles. Previously I ran PTE 1000cc injectors for almost three years and 45K miles on E85 and didn't have any sticky looking black gunk, I only had very vey small carbon like deposit on two of the PTE injectors.

99% of the E85 I get is from a couple different Holiday's (Coon Rapids and Shoreview)
