Hey guy,
So pretty much everyone i have asked, has said something different. Is there any specific type of oil for an e85 tune? I heard a car tuned to e85 create moisture in the oil, which make for more often oil changes, but my problem is, i don't want to run to thin on start up and its as thin as water...

Re: What motor oil? E85
Ive always just run any good old synthetic.
never had an issue yet nor has anyone said anything different..?
10-40 for a new motor I always run Nulon 15w50 street/track in mine though.
