Are you sure you had the unit set up correctly?

You will need to scale your IFR. the limit for newer ECM's is 63.5 lb/hr

Generally speaking, (I only know my own ECM limits) multiply injector flow rate by .5 and stoich fuel ratio by 2.

A good tuner will know exactly what to do. Go to hptuners.com or whatever website EFiLive users gather in. There are 100's of topics covering this (gets a little intimidating).

Uhhh, get a higher flow fuel pump....

Seriously, your stock pump (it's still stock right?) is probably not capable of delivering enough regular fuel to those 80's, let alone trying to do it with E85.

You might consider a stock, flex fuel, pump from an L9H truck. I don't know the flow rate but from what i understand that they are pretty good. If that's not enough, go aftermarket. It's the only choice you have really.

Good luck!

Try finding a fuel pump that works on pulse and not a constant 12V with the FPCM it isnt available without going to a return style system

Can you just not take the FPCM out and run a Fuel pump with a regulator at the tank?
