I am wondering what it would take to convert my 06 150 5.8L to E85. I have checked the VIN and there is no V in the 8th digit.

I assume that I need a new fuel pump, injectors, and plugs, as well as a computer upgrade.

Does that sound correct? Can/will Ford do this for me?

Are there reliable aftermarket conversion kits?

Has anyone done it?

 

Not advised, the cost of the conversion to do it RIGHT is a couple grand. The entire fuel system needs to be changed because ethanol is so corrosive. Even if E85 is 60 cents cheaper than gas, you will lose enough gas mileage to make the payback period longer than the life of the truck.

 

Trade it in, take a huge hit, buy another that can run E-85, then kick oneself in the nutts for buying into Liberal BS.

 

contact member tschaid if you are serious about it. as far as i know, he is the only member on the site who has performed the conversion. it probably isn't worth the hassle of fooling with it, and ethanol is not really the answer anyway.
