2006 Saab 9-3 V6 B284 on E85
Hi all
First time posting here.
I wanted to ask if it is possible to run E85 on a B284L with 250hp/275hp with the Hirsch tune.
I've read some swedish forum posts were some people are running straight E85 with no changes to hardware and software. Other people are saying that the Bosch ME9.6 ECU cannot handle E85 and that it will throw a CEL.
Has anyone tried that before in their 2.8?
Also I'm not going for more power but looking to increase fuel economy as E85 is still considerably cheaper for me even when factoring in the ~30% worse fuel consumption.
