Flex fuel vehicles have a significant number of changes. The fuel lines are poly, and rarely steel as steel will corrode with the added load of Ethanol. The injectors are larger, the fuel pump is quite different, there are pressure regulators that change, intake runners are likely different, and valve seals changed as well. Fuel tank sender material and seals, and sometimes a different set of rings.
Even a change from E10 to E15 could cause some damage to cars from 87-02. E15 was contemplated for the 04 winter, and most mfgs started testing their cars with E15 and higher in 03. Lots of fuel seal failures. O-rings, fuel pump failures, etc. From 05 and later, an E10 vehicle MIGHT be ok on E15, but never on E85. Unless it is stated as 'flex fuel' of course.
