 If you're running a mix (say 75% E85 and 25% gasoline), then you have to do a little more work.  As an example, let's assume you're running 75% E85 and 25% gasoline. ​ The new gas ratio in this case would be: If you're running a mix (say 75% E85 and 25% gasoline), then you have to do a little more work.  As an example, let's assume you're running 75% E85 and 25% gasoline. ​ The new gas ratio in this case would be:
  
-0.75 * 0.670 + 0.25 * 1 = 0.7525+  ​0.75 * 0.670 + 0.25 * 1 = 0.7525
  
-With that new ratio calculated, you can calculate your effective injector flow rate the same as above.+With that new ratio calculated, you can calculate your effective injector flow rate the same as above (assuming 850 cc/min injectors again).
  
-850 * 0.7525 = 640+  ​850 * 0.7525 = 640
  
 So instead of 570 cc/min that results from 100% E85, your injectors will actually flow like 640 cc/min injectors with a 75% E85/25% gas mix.  You can then calculate the global fuel same as always. So instead of 570 cc/min that results from 100% E85, your injectors will actually flow like 640 cc/min injectors with a 75% E85/25% gas mix.  You can then calculate the global fuel same as always.
  
-450 / 640 - 1 = -30%+  ​450 / 640 - 1 = -30%
