Angry 2001 Dodge stratus fuel injector problems E85

I have a 2001 Dodge Stratus 4 cylinder engine 2.4 l. The had been running good until I bought an E85 conversion Kit. The engine light came on soon after I installed the conversion kit. I took the car to AutoZone to have them check with their scanner, the Fault code indicated that I am having fuel Injector problem with all four injectors.

As one of the engineers for the SRT team said. The fuel systems are engineered for a max of 10% ethanol (and have been since the early 90's). Ethanol is EXTREMELY corrosive and much lower in viscosity. Meaning it takes a much smaller injector. You are probably going to have to replace the injectors to make it run right-meaning keep the same injector pressure that the ECM is now seeing is too low.
