    Speaking only for myself... Maybe a little!

    Just easier to lean against a gas can while it's pouring into my car, than breaking out any wrenches. To each his own though.

    Ive swapped back and forth 3 times now since having the setup once was in the gas station parking lot just moved to the side of the lot, once was in my parking ramp, and the other was in a pep boys parking lot.

    If you cannot make a round trip on e85 this is hands down the way to go IMO. No hassle at all leave town on E85 when you need to fill up with regular gas swap pcms at the same time.

    Of course only easier solution is to bring along a laptop and flash the pcm.......

    Both methods are quick. Question though, I have a tuned pcm from reptile so it's not a stock pcm so can I still run the 42lb injectors with no problems

    it absorbs water from the air at the same rate as regular fuel does.

    but it can absorb a far larger volume of water than regular fuel. so long term storage of e85 does present a problem if not sealed. which means more headaches as you fill yer tank from the cans and then fill the cans with fresh e85 to keep cycling yer fuel stock...

    btw its two 7mm bolts for the pcm connectors.
