Live Green, Go Yellow.
When I bought the new van I didn’t get a manual or anything with it, and the dealer that sold it to me didn’t mention or perhaps didn’t know that the van was an FMV. I really just discovered it by chance, the other day I was filling my gas tank when I happen to read the sticker on the inside of the gas door, it stated “Ethanol (E85) or Unleaded Fuel Only” and then it goes on about how the van is capable of running Ethanol based fuels.
I’ve never owned a flexible fuel vehicle before so it’s exciting to be able to already have something that can support a product that will not only support our economy but the environment. We only have one fuel station in Pine County that sells E85 and it just so happens to be next to my work which is convenient since I already fuel up there quite often.
After discovering this I’m wondering how many people are driving around out there with a vehicle that can accommodate an alternate fuel source, and not even know it.

I bought an ‘02 mazda truck, was just flipping through the manual one day after changing a tire and realized it was e85. Checked it out online and most if not all cars made after that date for mazda are the same. Wonder if all companies are like that or if it is a mazda thing.
We had an old moonshine still set up and used it to make ethanol. It would take me buying large quantities of the mix to ever really save alot of money , but it was fun to do anyways.
yippee for the e85.
