Default Re: Ethanol gas

I've had to use 10% ethanol gas in my '41 Ford , should I say it, street rod for many years. I've pulled the carb apart after 10 yrs or so and saw no signs of any deterioration what so ever. No problems with my fuel pump. I did change any fuel hoses to nitrile hose. But I drive the snot out of it so gas doesn't sit in it long. I do put Sta-bil in it in the winter. I've heard all the horror stories about ethanol but have never actually talked to anyone that actually traced any problem to ethanol We've used E-10 for probably 10 yrs or longer.
