    E85 fuel problems...

    Just stripped down the B18C from the Integra looking at the damage from E Ck. Noticed that the oil was getting thin or watered down (Motul changed every meeting). Also the bearings are all marked up with a cloudy film. No expense spared when engine was built earlier this year with all new bits.

    My question is, is the E85 hurting the engine and oil? It's E85 from United.

    Any thoughts or ideas from your experiences would be appreciated.

    Is Motul you're using even E85 compatible?

    I think it's only the 300V thats E85 a-ok

    I usually use Penrith racing 10tenths. On b or k series I usually run a tad thicker on track(normally 10w40, I go with 15w50) just to help and slow down the thinning of the oil.

    also a few high HP supras on e85 in using martini racing 10w60, seems to be awesome aswell

    No way. Highly recommended & proactive tuner in NSW motorsport.
    More than likely lack of knowledge on our part.
    But now we know...
