Storing E85 and pumping it into the car (options please)

SixBanger · 06-19-2017, 08:41 PM

A couple months back I decided to add Fuel-It's E85 sensor, fuel lines and LPFP stage 2 to the car. I've been running the JB4 stage 5 with BEF and adding a max of 4.5 galllons per full tank. I get my E85 fuel from far away, so I've been filling two 5 galon tanks, but when those tanks are full I'm spilling gas everywhere. What can I use to prevent E85 spilling when I use the red tanks at home? Also, what's the shelf life of E85 in a red gas tank?

I just buy 55 gal drums of E98 and use a hand pump.

55 gal drum of E98 is $200 here in STL.
