Guppy916 Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 I recall reading on some forums that people are worried about the ethanol in our fuel attacking the inside of a fuel tank that has been treated here's a quote from Hartlepool Radiators who treated my tank two years ago, "Hi George, we have been applying the renu treatment for 20 years now and not had an ethanol issue. We import the material from the States, Where there have samples that have been sitting in fuel for over 30 years without any degradation." so now we can stop worrying that it will block our fuel filters and jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NonMember Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 As was pointed out on the other forum, US fuel is not the same as ours and the ethanol is a relatively recent addition to both. I don't find it reassuring when somebody tells me something that isn't relevant to the question at hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does eat rubber but it also eats some of the older tank liner paints, which can lead to blocked bits as the lining flakes off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
