McBirney's Auto Service appreciates your loyal business. Your 2013 Chevrolet Express van 4.2 liter, Vin code A is a flex fuel vehicle. Flexible fuel vehicles (FFVs) are designed to run on gasoline or gasoline-ethanol blends of up to 85% ethanol (E85). The technician at Chevrolet of Huntington...

clearly misdiagnosed the problem, stating that the lean condition problem is due to 80% ethanol in your fuel. If your vehicle is working properly it's designed to run on 0 to 85% ethanol in the fuel. I called the service advisor at Chevrolet of Huntington, Mary B[redacted]i on 07/**/2016. I advised her of the misdiagnosis. I am actually shocked that a Chevrolet dealership put this in writing. E85 (or flex fuel) is a term that refers to high-level ethanol-gasoline blends containing 51%-83% ethanol, depending on geography and season. ASTM International developed a specification for E85 gasoline-ethanol blends containing 51%-83% ethanol to ensure proper vehicle starting, operation, and safety in varying temperature conditions. Like gasoline and diesel fuel, E85 and other ethanol-gasoline blends are adjusted seasonally and geographically to ensure proper starting and performance. For example, E85 sold during colder months often contains lower levels of ethanol to produce the vapor pressure necessary for starting in cold temperature. McBirney's Auto was the first on Long Island to sell E85 to the public. We felt that selling an alternative to gasoline was needed. Most of the ethanol is made in the U.S.A., creating many jobs in our country. I have answered thousands of questions, and addressed all miss conceptions about E85. Never has any one filed a complaint with the Revdex.com. [redacted] you are fast to file a complaint yet slow to do your homework. In your first complaint you talk about ethanol yet in your second you refer to octane? You purchased E85 on 06/**/2016 and had a problem with your vehicle on 07/**/2016 12 days later? Our E85 meets ASTM standards. ASTM standards for E85 on 06/**/2016 is a blend of 20% Gasoline to 80% ethanol. We sell about 600 gallons of E85 a day and have had no other complaints.
