Yes, there are far less plastic parts in the fuel system of an M. But, there are still lots of metal parts that the E85 will first scour clean and then begin to corrode. It probably wouldn't hurt to run it once just to test your theory that the M will run on it but then I wouldn't do it again. Heck, I remember once when I was mowing with a push mower when I was a kid (30 years ago) we ran out of gas and I filled the tank up with isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) from the bathroom cupboard. It ran fine but dad noticed that the paint around the tank looked "pale" the next day, turned out where I spilled filling it from that quart bottle had softened the paint and rehardened a different shade. Never did that again. Someday I should tell dad how that happened :-)
