The biggest deal that I am aware of is the electric in-tank fuelpump that runs with gasoline flowing right through the motor.
The story is that the alcohol fuel MAY, over time, degrade the copper commutator causing the fuelpump to stop.
GM, for example, calls the in-tank fuel units for flex-fuel vehicles "ROBUST" fuel units. I don't know WHAT has been done to those to make them last better with the alcohol fuel.
A few years back, my son ran quite a bit of E-85 through an old 1986 Firebird with no ill effects. The engine finally wore out (LOTS of miles) before there was ANY fuel-related problems.
