Can I run my car on 85% ethanol 900 1993

Prompted by Allanwayne´s query a bit further down, it made me think that I might consider running my car on the 85% ethanol 15% gasoline mixture becoming increasingly used here in Sweden. My car has a 230 FT engine with Turbo+ (APC), so it should be able to handle the octane issue. The only problem I might suspect could occur is if tank, fuel lines, pump, injectors or seals will crack due to lack of chemical resistance to the ethanol.

Anyone knows if can do?
