I'm finding it surprisingly hard to find United E85 locations in Sydney . I followed one link back to United and traced three servos ie Blaxland Rozelle and Drumoyne (Sp ?) . I did see mention of a fourth but don't know where that one is .

These three are pointless if you live on the southern outskirts of Sydney because they are too far away or awkward to et to .

Can someone tell me where the fourth United E85 source is and if theres any down Wollongong way , even thats a bit far really .

I was hoping to get a higher blend than EFlex E70 reasonably close because the higher content means less to make my blends up with .

Any help appreciated , cheers Adrian .

Bloody Dee Why , what've United got against us southerners ?

Well if you're going to make your own brews the higher the ethanol content the better because its less to add and less base stock to try to ignore .

Looks like winter grade EFlex will have to do , cheers A .

Buy it by the drums if you're mixing at home?

Are there any more United E85 service stations that have opened this year in Sydney ? Minto is still the closest and for whatever reason my 33 likes it better than EFlex . The other night I dumped a 1/4 tank of Minto85 on top of 3/4s of EFlex and my car seems to run smoother and is getting a few more MPG .

We've got EFlex nearby but no local United 85 .

Cheers A .

Well , people still talk about wheels in inches and boost in pounds but no I think in terms of litres per hundred km and I'd love to get 10/100 . MPG is just quicker to type .

When this tank full gets low I'll try 50 50 United 85 and Caltex E70 . Thinking about it I was running United 85 before the ViPec and tune so maybe my engine likes it better because it was getting better consumption round town then with the PFC and Z32 MAF . You'd think E70 having more "petrol" in it would get better mileage than E85 though the Americans suspect that what the oil co's put into some ethanol blends isn't real flash in the "petrol" component .

Cheers A .

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
