Perhaps I should mention, there is nothing about changing the E15 warning
label, which says to only use E15 in 2001 and newer vehicles. Since the
last Triumph was some 20 years before that, even the EPA does not recommend
using it in Triumphs.

Personally, I think having more choice is a Good Thing, even if the choices
are not things I want to choose. AFAIK, the state of California does not
allow E15 here (yet), but I've pulled up to lots of gas pumps in other parts
of the country where the button for E15 is right next to the one for E85.
Didn't hurt me or my car a bit! (Since I didn't push either one of them.)

Those brass needles are really soft; I would suggest a fine tooth file and a
light touch rather than a Dremel. I haven't worked out how big the flat
should be, but it won't take much. You're only looking for something like
5% more fuel (or maybe 6%, depending on whose numbers you believe).
Again assuming you want to run E15 in the first place.
