Go ahead: your old Corolla will become a dead Corolla.

Whatever, pal. If you don't have anything of concrete value to contribute, then don't complain about free. :)

I have one of those "classics" and have to hunt for low ethanol fuel constantly.

It's a huge PITA to retrofit to modern fuel rails when custom NLA injectors are $$$$.


Do you really think they would have put those “flex fuel” badges on cars if they all could run E85 without problems?

From my interwebs knowledge you need a fuel sensor (to tell the percentage of ethanol) and an ECU that can take advantage of the different fuel blendings.

So, yeah, maybe not a dead car but definitely not an efficient one.


yes, I do think car vendors would affix stickers implying that existing features are actually new additions (worth paying extra for). I don't know if that's true in this case, but I don't think it's an argument either way.
