andy it was my impression from field engineers and warranty replacement that the issue is fuel lubricity in the diesels, While i am astounded by the output of modern oil burners they tend to like parts when not fed a diet of perfect fuel in my exp. as to the e85 they have a sensor in the canister vent and siff the o2 to calculate fuel blend and adjust fuel mapping accordingly. This seems to me that it would require much better fpgas than those on non flex vehicles, but today i think fpga capacity is probly not the issue it was 4 yrs ago when i was deep into keeping them going
