    No. E85 is 15% gasoline and 85% alcohol. It can be burned in some gasoline engines but not in diesels.

    No, E85 is an alternative for Gasoline — not diesel.

    You can run Bio-diesel though. It’s usually B10, B20, etc.

    Good Luck.

    You can’t use E85, but you can use hydrogen like I do. It’s not hard to install yourself. You can do it within a hour or two. I know there’s controversy on the net about it but honestly, YES it does work. I have done this to my 96 Saturn and currently get about 50 miles per gallon.

    I wrote a blog review about it here:

    It’s very simple. You don’t change your engine or computer. A quart-size (95O cc) container is placed somewhere under the hood. You fill it with DISTILLED WATER and a little bit of BAKING SODA. The device gets vacuum and electricity (12 Volts) from the engine, and produces HHO gas (Hydrogen+Oxygen). The HHO gas is supplied to the engine’s intake manifold or carburetor as shown below.

    Hope this helps.
