If your running ethanol why not look into a proper sensor fitted to the car as I’m guessing you have some kind of map so could run flex fuel
Out of interest how are you getting the ethanol ?
Hi mate, I don't have an ethanol sensor at the minute i am contemplating bm3 flex fuel sensor and getting a custom flex fuel tune but I'm waiting to get my turbo before I go custom as I don't want to pay for custom twice, had some quotes from cary Jordan and a few others and they don't offer massive discount if you get turbo and request a further tune. I'm also getting my ethanol from my work we order 4000lt at a time and my boss allows me to buy it at cost.
Going the total opposite way to Autosri, you can do this with a bog standard plastic bottle. If you add (for example) 100ml of water to a 500ml bottle, mark your water line, then every 25ml of water you add on top of that gives you a new 5% graduation. Mark it up where you need it to be, then when you want to use it add 100ml of water and 400ml of fuel, give it a shake, sorted.
Or just buy a graduated cylinder and use a different bottle to shake it every time!
Hi mate, this makes alot of sense, I was thinking looking at a few of the bottles you can buy for the size of the bottles they use to do it myself as can't be hard and this just confirm it. Thankyou mate I will give this a go, much appreciated!
It just seems like a major faff doing it the manual way if there is a sensor that does it automatically on the fly for you
That’s why I went methanol as it was less agro
I have just downloaded bm3 stage 2+ E30 map, 2x 20lt Vp racing bottles and 30lt of ethanol to play with, I know I need around 6.2lt of E per 13.8lt Fuel per 20lt tank but I'd prefer to test my esso 99 and the the mix after I have actually blended. If I blend a minimum of E30 and my esso99 is upto E10 I'm giving myself a range from E30 to E36.9 but rather than just mix and hope id rather be sure.
I do have methanol available to me also and is marginly cheeper but with Bm3 already having E30 map I though I might aswell give it a go.
I am currently on stage 2+ 93 map and chucking in what makes E15 to clean up logs so thought why not try the E30 map.
