Burning the fuel has nothing to do with timing. Your injectors need to add a bit more fuel with ethanol and your vehicle will lean and rich itself out accordingly up to the mic I stated. Anything after and you need a conversion kit Your vehicles computer can handle about a 40% E85 60% gasoline mix without any problems. Burning the fuel has nothing to do with timing.

The computer chip has to have a different timing set to compensate for the different combustion characteristics of the E-85 fuel. The "flex fuel" vehicles have a feature built in that senses they type of fuel, and compensates the computer automatically. A non FFV vehicle doen't have that feature and has to be upgraded to run right using E-85. Hope this helps. Yes.
