I havent noticed this myself as far as the 02 sensors go. It may be true but have been able to get a few years out of mine and its still good. The oil I agree with you though.

This is completely false. Any blow by you have containing gas stays in your oil.

When its e85, well 85% of it will evaporate off and evacuate through your pcv system thus contaminating your oil much less. You see your oil temps are over the e85s boiling point, and its not going in as a liquid either as it evaporates the moment its sprayed from the injector.

Support your point or I dont buy it.
