You can run nitrous with just about anything. I use N2O to burn polypropolene plastic fuel
in Hi-Powered model rockets with hybrid rocket motors.
N2O is an oxidizer meaning it promotes combustion through
the addition of oxygen. Your jetting is totally different when you use different fuels, for
instance with ethanol race fuel will need 20 to 40 % bigger fuel jets I don't know what you would need for E85 but as a rule start rich then lean up to find the right set up.
