I once read that you need to fill the tank a few times with E85 to give the cars computer some type to get used to that type of fuel. Supposedly after a few fill-ups the computer would know the correct way to properly burn the fuel more efficiently. Not sure if any of that is true, but just like a bunch of you, I filled my tank once with E85 and noticed a significant decrease in fuel economy. I didn't bother trying to find out if that was true or not. It was in an article I read online. And we all know how trustworthy internet articles are.
