Evoscan reading Ethanol%?

I recently got a flex fuel tune and was wondering if anyone has gotten Evoscan to read the Ethanol%?

Yes, add this to your Evoscan xml in Evoscan's DataSettings folder

<DataListItem DataLog="Y" Color="" Display="Ethanol Percentage" LogReference="EthanolPercent" RequestID="23805083" Eval="x*100/255" Unit="unit" MetricEval="" MetricUnit="" ResponseBytes="1" GaugeMin="0" GaugeMax="255" ChartMin="0" ChartMax="255" ScalingFactor="1" Notes="" Priority="1" PriorityOffset="0" LogHide="false" Visible="False" />

If you are using RAX logging (which you should) then just use this attached file and use it to replace the file already in your Evoscan directory located: C:\Users\YouUserName\My Documents\EvoScan v2.9\DataSettings\

Thanks for the reply! However, I do not have a "DataSettings" folder in the Evoscan folder.

Yes you do, follow the path I put above.

You also can add it manually in evoscan if you wish

You are correct sir. I didn't realize you were talking about the folder in "Documents". I was able to enter it in manually though and it worked. Thanks a lot!

On a side note - I thought the gas stations were only allowed to go down to E70? I was reading E66.

No that changed like 2.5yrs ago. It can be as low as E54 now.
