Can I use E-85 ethanol fuel in my 1997 Chevy Cavalier?
No, you should not try E-85 in your 97 Cavalier. E-85 is 85% ethanol, and it is not compatable with the components of the fuel system in your car. It may cause rough running, reduced performance, and possible damage to your fuel lines and injectors. Stick with good ol’ regular grade gasoline, or E-10 (10% ethanol) for your car.
