Hello everybody.
Does anybody know if an tiger bought in Brazil runs on
ethanol or do they use just ordinary gas.
Just curious to know since here in Sweden we have E85 fuel
(85% Ethanol + 15 % 95 Octane unleaded gas) and it's much cheaper than gas.
I saw a FI remapping file for Brazilian Tiger only and thought maybe it's possible to reprogram the fi on a Swedish Tiger with the map for Brazil and use E8 afterwards.
If the Brazilian Fi program is adapted for using ethanol it should work fine with E85.

Hi Jammed!
I'm from Brazil, and our standard gasoline carries 24% of ethilic alcohol (pretty like distilled drinks :-D ). That's why we have a different FI mapping.
I don“t think our mapping would work with 85% ethanol though.

Rgds!
