    Dealer recommends "Induction Service" and "Carbon Clean" @45000km ?

    I put E85 in my V8 when ever I go past a servo that sells it. It usually sells for about 20c a litre less than 91 and the fuel usage seems to be about the same. 35% less emmisions and it does seem to have a bit more go with E85.
