Running E85 (or E70 or Exx)

When running a mix of ethanol and gasoline, you have to account for the difference in fuel makeup when calculating your global fuel adjustment. Some common numbers you'll need for this are provided below.

Fuel Stoich AFR
Gas 14.7
E70 10.6975
E85 9.8526
E100 9.0078

To calculate these values, use the following formula:

<% ethanol> * 9.0078 + <% gasoline> * 14.64

For example, for running pure E85, you would use:

0.85 * 9.0078 + 0.15 * 14.64 = 9.8526
