Converting to E-85

[CmeBckKd]

I'm curious about converting my predator 212cc motor to run on E-85 fuel.
What's the pro's and con's?
What all would I have to do to convert it?
Has anyone else already did this and your thoughts on your own motor afterwards?

add compression and timing, add bigger jets and be happy

Fuel economy sucks compared to straight gasoline.
The high alcohol content should burn cooler and allow compression/ignition advance.

Since fuel economy is not a huge concern with a toy, E85 could be fun.
The big question is how will your fuel hoses and such stand up to it.
If they're made for it, great.
If they're not made for it, not so great.
