100% I think you're right about 15.5 if I recall correctly (too lazy too look up) but in that I cannot start a 91 (Cali crap gas) to e85 blend to achieve E30 in an absolutely 100% dry tank I've just come to use a total of 14 gallons as my overall target.

An an example if my car says I have 10 miles to go I assume I am near empty and I pump 10 gallons of 91 to 4 gallons of e85. If my car says I have a half tank and I want to maintain my e30 blend (assuming that's what is already in the tank) I pump 5 gallons of 91 to 2 gallons of e85....so on and so forth

Sorry I wasn't more clear - hope this helps
