Try the e-85 without making any modifications to the carb. If it starts to sputter or miss under a load, turn the carb load adjustment out to a total of no more than 5 turns. If that doesn't get it, then you will need to remove the main metering tube and start drilling out those tiny little holes in the tube. Drill the bottom holes first, no more than one drill size bigger than the hole is now, if needed, do the same to the second set of holes, and maybe the third set. You might need to drill them two sizes bigger. Let me clarify by saying that I have never used e-85, but the metering tube is the only thing in the carb that can be easily modified to allow more fuel. There are other things that can be done, but start with this. E-85 is not yet available where I live, when it is, I will experiment also.
