Alright, I guess sohcd16y8 is saying everything but those two components will be fine for ethanol use.

Do you need larger injectors than you would with a standard gasoline engine, or is this a myth as well? If I remember corectly ethanol stioch is like ~9:1 so I would think you would have to flow alot more fluid to match ratios (9:1 vs. 14.7:1).

This is a great thread! Does anyone have an actually picture they took of a great looking spark plug? Reading what one should look like and actually seeing are two different things. Man I'm glad I joined this board and got eCtune. The atmosphere around here is so different than most other boards.
