Will the E85 make my walbro fuel pumps fail? How long can i expect to run this. I won't be running it all the time just when i can get it. Just got my full blown motorsports dual kit with 2 walbro 255hp pumps, with -8 feed and -6 return.

No. Ive used wally pumps and E85 for a very long time with no issues. Then again ive had wallys be bad out of the box using regular pump gas, so if they were to go, dont blame it on the fuel :)

x2^^. E85 will not destroy a walbro. Granted, the majority of the people using E85 are on the Bosch 044 pump but the walbro shouldn't give you issues. Just hit the search button, I'm sure this has been discussed more than once.
 
I'm running dual walbros with e85.
my car has been together for 3 years without issue as well.

My buddy made 400whp for a long time with e85 on one walbro 255, it's still fine.
 
Thanks for the feedback. I did some searching and found some people think they will fail due to e85 but you guys with first hand experience have rested my mind.
