Big problem with high ethanol content for the classic car and motorbike scene. Lots of evidence to show it destroys fuel lines from the inside out, seals, tanks and even carburettors have been wrecked by it.. I also notice that petrol really stains paintwork now if left on it for any time.
A mate has a 1927 AJS with a flat tank..leaks all over the show on the seams that we all believe are caused by ethanol attacking the soldered joints. Nasty stuff indeed.
More modern fuel lines etc ought to be resistant but worth keeping an eye on just in case. The plans are to increase the % so it can only get worse.
I also get fuel from stations with a high turnover and if a car or bike is to be left standing over winter, best to use some additive to the fuel.
