E85 now at some co-op gas stations
Some CO-OP's have now started selling E85. one in Nanaimo selling it and one in Aldergrove will start selling it soon. The Nanaimo location has 2 pumps.

Looks like Nanaimo CO-OP got a bad batch of e85 around Christmas. Some cars have had to have the fuel pumped out and spark plugs replaced others have had bent valves and cracked rocker arms. CO-OP is paying for repairs.

^One of our shops (i work at lordco) had a customer come in with their flex fuel grand caravan that had gotten the bad fuel from co-op. Snacked the rocker arm right off and pretty much totalled their motor. Either going to be a full rebuild or new longblock.

E85 sounds like a headache. Don't you have to test it during winter?

I see a gas station, i put that shit in.
