Hoping someone can help Are the Aeromotive fuel pumps compatible with E85?
Has anyone run a #11102 pro-series Aeromotive pump on here.... feedback?

thanks Dan, was the #11104 pump housing physically larger than the A1000? & are you running E85? apparently not all pumps are compatible

awesome, thanks. I think I'll go with the #11102 just to be safe. I think it'll be the same size physically. will check out the filters you suggested as Aeromotive don't seem to list stainless outlet filter elements with -12 sizing.
thanks again Dan.

I believe any gas pump is compatible with e85.
any gas fuel pump will "work" with e85, but it will fail pretty quickly.
The internal parts of an E85 pump are made of different materials than a gasoline pump, which are able withstand the corrosive nature of e85.

I called and asked before I bought my 220HR from B.G. and was assured it was E-85 compatible. I hope they weren't lying.

I haven't had ant problems with their pumps. 4 years on a bg400 with no issues. I would not run the regs as the ethanol eats the seats in them. Saw this first hand last year on the 2ports. I ran a 4 port for 2 years with no problems but after seeing what happened with the 2port I will not run it anymore.
