Hello chaps, is it possible to run 1989 164 TS 2L non catalyst engine with E85, what are the mods to do ?

We run a 156 1.8 TS equiped with 237 injectors it burns ethanol or gasoline without any problem, but what can be done with the old bialbero ?

I have absolutely no idea what it would require to make it run on E85, but if you find out, please let us know about it :)

You should rather try a car for the Brasilian market (Alfa 164 as v6 12v and 24v only), these models had engines taht comply to a certain percentage of Rtzhanol. They have modified seals.
