Good question Eric. There has been a lot of press in the old car mags about the negative issues with ethenol added gas. One of the issues is it's effect on the rubber fuel lines and any rubber, gaskets, etc within the carb. I understand it tends to deteriorate those items. The newer style fuel lines found on modern cars are OK from what I've read and experienced. In Illinois and now in Southern Oregon all our gas has the ethenol added to it for pollution issues, must burn cleaner I assume. My modern American cars handle the stuff OK but now I'm wondering about the Speedster. I better give JPS a call and find out if the fuel lines installed are the ethenol proof lines. Thanks for bringing this up. I know in the Midwest the alcohol based fueled are prevelant, in fact I found in Nebraska last summer that the medium grade gas, 89 octane, was about 5 cents cheaper than the regular 87 octane. I guess because they are promoting the corn based gas.
