Cross posting this in here since I figured someone else might have some insight on the problem...

i had the same thing happen to me dont know if this will help u or not but i filled up on e85 new tank and noticed that the car stumbled a bit then about 40 miles later the car died it would spitter and sputer nothing above 3000 rpm and no boost. then it would not even try to fire it was just dead i to thought i had got a bad tank of e85. barly got the car home tryed everything i could think of and nothing helped .i could hear the fuel pump running so i pulled the pluggs and i noticed they were dry but i had been cranking and craking so they should have been wet .so i pulled the pump and it had a bad piece of fuel line between the fitting at the top and the pump so the pump was running but just getting air and the fill up right before it happened was just a coincidence and it had threw some lean codes. i replaced the hose and the car fired right up no problem since. good luck hope you figure it out
