FWIW (probably not much) I have been trying to avoid gasoline with even10%
ethanol. Here in Florida there are still a few stations, Mobil comes to mind,
that don't have the 10% ethanol label on them. I have noticed that both Hess
(the nearest station) and Shell now have 10% ethanol. As several people have
mentioned, I am concerned about the possibility of deteriorating rubber and
plastic in the carbs, the plastic float on the fuel gauge sending unit as well
as the rubber fuel supply line I added during my TBI conversion. I am also
concerned that the alcohol in the gasoline will attract water while in the tank
(hydro-something or other), especially during long storage periods.
