2005 E500(w211) with a 5.0(B113)
E85 2005 E500 with B113 engine

does anyone know what I need to change to run E85 if anything other than tune. Can I run it with the stock fuel lines and fuel pump and injectors or do I need to change it all out?

thank you very much.

are you dumb or just a dick? I not only tune cars, but build cars for a living. They are plenty of cars that you can run E85 on with a tune only. I’m not new to the building or tuning world. I’m just new to this platform so I was asking questions to familiarize myself. It was a simple question and you don’t need to be a dick, all you had to say, is no you can’t or yes you can run it on the stock system..

You could go with this for example: www.eflexfuel.com Has everything you need, should be good to go with stock parts. One important part is the fuel sensor, which senses the ethanol content and adjusts fueling accordingly.
