fuel e85
deal all,
im new in that forum about my ford f-350 xlt from 1979 which i bought from arizona view month ago.
im happy with that truck even my wife was pushing that new drive style for our family with us trucks. shes driving ford f-150 xlt from 2017 with 5.0 v8 gasoline engine, modified to lpg also. therefore i have a question im not really sure about.
at the easy fuel cap is market e85 gasoline which should be very common in usa.
in europe and special germany its e10. i know that it means the additional part of ethanol in it. is there anybody who will confirm that we can use the e10 gasoline here without any problems for engine. can i also use that fuel in my old f-350.
thanks in advance
michael

Hi mrkomatsu, welcome to FTE!
You can use any gasoline, ethanol free up to E85, in the 2017 F150 5.0.
You can use E10 in the 1979. I would use a fuel stabilizer in it if you let it sit for any length of time.

hi again jkbrad
yes it is rare. it a race red 5.0 v8 and the ford emblem is changed to one with the name of my wife in same letter style. took 3 hours when she noticed that. on windscreen top is „ the blonde beauty and the beast“,
she likes that truck very much, its the best car we ever owned. whit my f350 i will do trip to finnland next month. the old old one ive never seen in germany until now specially the twin colors. the frame is made with wax for longlife, upper part i will modify step by step but no painting

When I was in Iceland last year I saw a surprising amount of US made trucks there. You should take your F350 there one day. Those Icelanders would go crazy over it. I also saw many German campers, huge 4x4s made by MAN.
Post some pictures of your newer truck in this forum. I’m sure they guys would like to see an F150 in Germany.
Then check out our 1973-1979 forum too.
