What Is E85 Fuel Pump? Everything You Need To Know About E85 Fuel
When going to the gas station to get your vehicle topped up, you might have noticed a recent addition in the form of an additional pump handle in the fuel station with an “E85” label on the handle.

Let's understand this in greater detail, highlighting the purpose of the OSIAS E85 fuel pump and how it benefits vehicle performance.

E85 Fuel
E85 is a special type of fuel that comprises ethanol, along with conventional gasoline. The purpose of ethanol in this fuel is to increase the performance of automotive vehicles, making it the preferred type of fuel in Powersports.

Even though ethanol is incredibly beneficial to vehicle performance, the chemical alone cannot be used as fuel since it is known to be highly corrosive for the parts within a car's fuel system and the fuel pressure regulator when it is, by itself, in an isolated state.

Moreover, it is strongly discouraged to use ethanol during cold weather because it requires much more energy to be ignited than gasoline, leading to difficulties while starting the car during winter.

However, these major problems are to occur when ethanol is the only chemical used as fuel for your car, but combining it with the right chemical completely changes the equation, which is why this is the fuel recommended for the Kawasaki mule fuel pump.

By combining ethanol with gasoline, E85 has overcome two prominent issues commonly associated with using ethanol as a fuel substitute. The combination of these chemicals results in a fuel containing the necessary detergents so that E85 does not corrode the fuel system, and the low energy required for gasoline to ignite results in the vehicle engine starting up even during the harshest of winters, making the E85 perfect for an ATV fuel pump.

FAQ
What Components are required to switch over to E85 fuel?
When making the switch, an external fuel pump will be needed to accommodate the extra volume taken by E85. Additionally, E85 exhibits signs of increased fuel flow, which is why you would need a high-flow fuel pump as well.

Can All Vehicles Accommodate E85?
Any car can run E85, but the fuel system must go through several changes to make sure it can handle E85. The E85 fuel works best with vehicles manufactured by companies like Harley-Davidson,Arctic Cat, Can-Am, Polaris, Honda
 and Husqvarna, primarily for Powersports.

Conclusion
E85 has gained such favor and a positive reputation in the market primarily because this fuel is capable of not only providing your vehicle with that extra kick it needs to go faster but is known to be incredibly affordable for the benefits it provides to the vehicle, being priced lesser than premium gasoline.
