If i drink/eat enough products that contain ethanol,can i start peeing in my fuel tank?

That Chemist clearly didn't want to have to deal with Moog's shit

"Hi Cheryl...." LOL!

This has to be one of the most thoughtful and well put together videos on matters such as this. Bravo, gents.

Im doing my chemistry assignment on E85, this video almost cracked it for me! thanks guys!!

The quality of your videos is just getting better and better. Keep it up !

After following these guys since the very beginning it is fantastic to see that MCM has not only greatly improved they're production value, but also have stuck to their roots. For those that don't know, their channel was initially going to be more based on small, fun and eco-friendly cars which I feel closely relates to this episode. Like always it was a funny, interesting and informative episode. Keep it going Marty and Moog!!!

I found this a pretty well thought out article, and well presented. Love these guys!

Well written, presented and edited. I am particularly impressed with Marty's wrap up section. Clear, concise and most of all informative. Our little Marty is growing into quiet the presenter.

Hmmm alcohol fueled car? One for you, one for me, one for you, one for me...

This video helped me pass 9th grade a couple years ago, thanks! :)

A tricky subject made much much clearer, thanks guys and keep up the good work!

oh so thats why people in southern cali say their car is corn fed

I'm glad Marty finally got to do the educational style videos hes always wanted to do. This was pretty awesome.

probably the best MCM episode yet. excellent work lads. :)

I love these guys! I want to be this kind of car enthusiast: genuine, responsible and inspiring others to live greater lives.

And Moog was never allowed in the plant again.

It's hard to believe this is a MCM video... They've really improved their editing skills and quality since the start of their KZfaq channel. Keep up the awesome videos!

Guys you NEED to do a rotary project car

That was a very well presented and edited informative video on ethanol. Thanks.

You guys should make more documentaries like this. This was spectacular, so well filmed and so much great information shared. Great job! keep em coming!

Production value increasing so much. MCM reaching all new heights.

Really enjoyable episode guys! Would be great to see more educational stuff like this.

This has to be the best episode from you guys. Thanks for the "edumication". Keep it guys...

"...I should probably try it while I'm here" Moog kicking off 2016 with pure gold

Loved this episode! if there is a chance of doing more like these in the future it would be brilliant!

Great Video Guys! Really professional and informative. I have been wondering about this and this video gave me a lot of answers to those questions. Thanks!

This is why I love you guys. Because it's not just a car modding video. It's a truly informative and intellectual scientific lesson.

you guys just did a very well put together documentary in my opinion. good job guys!

Love this documentary. Fun and informative.

I was mad when I didn't see an episode about the Mini chopping things, however this episode was more than interesting, it was really helpful, thank you very much

Exceptional documentary! Very, very well done. Thank you so much for this! Fun and educational, best combination!

Only half way through this video but so far one of the best videos you guys have ever done. I loved the driveway videos of installing short shifters and painting brake calipers and stuff but doesn't it blow your minds when you compare those videos to this? Huge well done to all involved.

Ethanol: "It's all through your house, it's all through your work, it is everywhere" are you trying to call me an alcoholic?

Super interesting and very informative videos guys. You even managed to make it entertaining! Excellent stuff 👍

wow! great video guys! excellent quality. glad to see you guys making it !

Well-done on perspective, guys. :)

Moot point - we only eat sweet corn. The corn used to make ethanol is high starch. It's hard and tastes awful. It's mostly used for animal feed. It does make corn syrup and corn flour but only small amounts of it.

I love this show. I actually learn stuff I didn't know. I didn't know ish about ethanol until I watched this. You guys are awesome.

What a great vid guys, well done. Very interesting

the guy at 14:50 seemed pissed off at moog

Hope the worker did not get into trouble or worse for "Allowing" "Not stopping" moog from taste testing the ethanol :)

probably your most informative and yet funniest vid to date , thanks :-)

Brilliant episode chaps. Your episodes are getting so good (in appearance and execution) you really put a LOT of big budget TV shows to shame.

Here in Brazil, we have ethanol in every gas station, because almost every car out here is flex from the factory.

Who ever is using the Mighty Car Mods account HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! It was a wonderful year. Thanks Guys. :)

Awesome vid fellas! Would love maybe a different one of these every fortnight/month..... Loved it!

Thank you for your video. I have a Impalla that is flex fule and I had all my questions answered.

This was super cool and super interesting!!

No one warned that ethanol guy that Moog is a freak :P

very educational and fun too watch. Keep up the good work guys.

This is y'alls best video yet

Such an educational video, a lot of good information. I wish you guys would've mentioned to be careful running E85 in colder climates. Over here in the U.S. a lot of guys have two tunes. One for the summer when it's warm out with E85 and one in the winter when it's cold out on regular pump fuels. If you run E85 when its cold you can gunk up fuel filters, lines, and injectors. Having a flex fuel sensor solves this problem. Also, direct injection engines have high pressure injector that don't flow a lot of fuel... So direct injection engines don't see good benefits from E85 because you have to flow more fuel. Not a problem on port injection vehicles because you just get bigger injectors. Mostly, car with forced induction and high compression ratios will see the benefits from E85. Overall, amazing video keep up the great work. I love these videos that you guys do where you go learn something new and sharing it with us. Thank you.

Ime pretty sure I just accidentally skipped an ad about home doughnut delivery... WHAT HAVE I DONE!? X.X

I really appreciate that MCM is always balanced and methodical about topics like this. This video is top level journalism, complete with jokes about Cheryl.

I dig the bikes you guys always got in the background.

What an awesomely different episide

17:40 Finally a Volvo on MCM!

You guys showed footage near my hometown. In between Cabazon and North Palm springs. Whitewater. That is awesome!

I use it in my 2005 Silverado 5.3L Flex Fuel and it loves it. Super smooth operation, and big gobs of power on the highway. $1.90 a Gallon in Florida!

They basically put poisonous bitter stuff in it to prevent alcoholics from getting drunk on their fuel, because then the alcohol industry will suffer if you can get a gallon of ethanol for $1 or whatever.

96%? Congrats Moog, you just experienced Everclear; the beverage of choice of irresponsible, socially-crippled frat boys all over the US. :D

The intro reminds me of popular mechanics for kids back in the early 2000s. Good vibes, back when life was so easy.

Nice 1.. And I'm happy you tasted it.! Keep up the good work

We've been using ethanol here in Brazil since before the 2000 years, it's also know here as acohol

im running my 06 legacy on e85 thanks guys

Another good show guys!

love the shout out in the beginning.

being early to a MCM ep when its only 360p still sucks

10% ethanol mixed into regular petrol is a clusterF*&k in the US. It gums up carbureted small engines that are not run frequently. Also using corn in the US to make it made food more expensive here.

great video guys. i didnt even know e85 is less fuel efficient than regular gas. that definitely makes me want to get a flex setup instead of just e85

You guys need more videos like this

Interesting fact: here in Brazil, gasoline has (by law) 27% of 100% pure alcohol and ethanol is 95.1% to 96% (the rest is pretty much water and additives). In the modded car scene, is almost impossible to find a turbo/supercharged car running on gasoline (because the quality is so poor. Premium gasoline is better, but still poor quality). So when you decide to install any aftermarket forced induction, we only run our cars on ethanol. Pretty much all cars here are now flex fuel (a few years ago BMW launched here the active flex 320i, and now vw has a turbo 3 cylinder engine which is also flex fuel), not just because of all the extra power from ethanol, but because our gasoline knocks really easily (even on completely original n/a cars).

Excellent video! Good explanation of e85. Thank you. Greetings from Chile

Awesome episode guys. Big fan of yours in the U.S.A.

3:44 Holy shiiiiiiit. I live there!!!! Wooooaaahhhhhhh. Broooooooo!!!

i dont have a flex fuel car and i run e85 mix in my 2011 audi a5 turbo....never ever an issue and it runs great..and cooler

thanks so much for this, guys. I love it.

Very educational, great job guys.

Personally, and I hope this gets voted up so y'all see it, I don't like the way they're forcing ethanol into the fuel here in the US (E10). A lot of old cars are having issues with only 10% in the fuel. Fuel systems, including carburetors them self are often damaged or destroyed by ethanol. Sometimes it takes years, sometimes less. Ethanol free gas is available, but rare. If your car is built for it, it's great, if it's not, even E10 is a nightmare. I've taken apart carburetors that sat with E10 in them for a few months and the seals had turned to goo, one even had the float disintegrate. Don't get me wrong, I love finding alternative fuels, and anything which can put hydrogen into the engine to be burnt other than gasoline is very interesting, but here in the states Ethanol has become a heated debate. Also, I'll never give up my internal explodey goodness for a electric car. Never, ever, ever, ever... EDIT: I'm also jealous you have higher octane ratings down there...

You guys should get an AE86 next!!

Nice job, was a well presented video guys!

Nice video MCM.

And here comes that one person who uses diesel. me.

i like how moog just has to try again. XD

Just watched this eposide, great content, keep up the edumacational video's

Y'all trying to get on the Discovery Channel with this quality and effort? Haha. Great video mates!!

2008 or so E85 cost $ 1.99 in California. 2016 $2.05 My Evo drinks this stuff.

I'm also guessing that E85 is the sweet spot between the cooling power of alcohol and the energy density of gasoline.

the most educational mcm episode ever

Good work boys, great video.

why aren't we funding this??????

Dude I'm gonna convert my race car to E85 it will be awesome! Then I will use my backup car to drive 200 miles to look for E85 once a month and top up :)

Awesome piece guys!!!

Dudes.. Awesome video! Thanks for the education Mighty Car Mods!

Something you didn't discuss but is a big factor, is ethanol's ability to absorb water out of the atmosphere and fall out of solution in mixed fuel supplies. I'm most familiar with E-10 and it's abilities to ruin all kinds of small engines or at the very least, make off-season storage a serious pain in the ass. If you have a can of fuel that isn't 100% sealed, in 3-6 months, it is likely to be trash. That means boats and mowers and trimmers and chainsaws and pressure washers and emergency de-watering pumps and ANYTHING that takes ethanol fuels runs the risk of having contaminated fuel the next time you go to use it. That's one reason ethanol fuels are NOT allowed in aviation. That 30% loss of energy is a big deal if you want any range out of the tank of fuel you jst bought as well. It's great for short sprints, where carrying 30% more fuel may not matter, but when your Mini can go 300 miles on it's 10 gallons of gasoline but only 200 on E-85, your trip from Melbourne to Cape Coran might not go as smoothly.

after drinking that did moogs farts sound like a turbo?

Gr8 Video MCM!

Great video guys! Very informative!
