180sx on e85

[Jackabo]

Hey guys I’m looking at running my rb 180sx on e85 I’ve got all the ethenol rated lines to run the fuel but I was wondering if the factory 180sx fuel tank can run e85. I’ve hear a bunch of different thing like steel tanks can’t hold e85 but I’ve also heard things like aluminium tanks can’t hold it either. I’ve contacted a company about one of there fuel tank dealing products and they said that almost all of the fuel tank dealers on the market don’t work . 
 

any help would be greatly appreciated cheers

Everyone runs E85 in original steel tanks.

You can have extra corrosion issues because E85 can absorb a lot of water (compared to plain petrol) and have it sit on the bottom of the tank. In practice though, most of the stories where this has happened and caused problems involve really unusual circumstances.

Just do it.

I've been running e85 in my 180sx for well over  8 years. Replaced filter sock after first 3 months then around 4 years later. Fuel filter gets replaced every 12ish months.

Never had an issue. When stored for 6months or more always had a full tank with a bottle of additive.
