I run ethanol, but Im running richer than stock, and its not just
the ethanol but the whole blend, you can get away with it so long
as you tune for it.

Jim.  I've got a question . Today I connected my fuel pressure gauge to 
check  
the pressure , I use the line that used to go to the cold start valve  
should 
still be the same pressure . It read 32 PSI because I was told a  while 
back 
raising it might help with the ethonal fuel  here.
 
Why does everyone want to blame the ethanol fuel? Here in Michigan we've  
had it since 1986, so it's not a "new thing". It does lower fuel mileage,
but 
 we're only talking about 1-2 mpgs compared to straight gas without the 
ethanol  in it. 
 
PS, I use that same fitting myself, as I have the Cold start stuff disabled 
 completely.
