This seems to be the time of year for pumps of all types to go "South".... It seems to be seasonal to me.... My question is, is it Ethanol, or something else they're putting in this "clean" gasoline we're getting... If so, what is it???
We have a rather higher percentage failure than other groups appear to have.... Just wondering.

Corn is for whiskey and fattening cattle - not for automobiles.
Bill, yours is old enough that it might have been made somewhere besides China.
They do make ehthanol pumps. Ask around and see what is used on Indy cars or the new bio diesel trucks
I spoke to my friend Mike about the Huco pump he sold me to replace a failed CB rotary pump. He told me that all of the internals of the Huco are stainless steel. They're not cheap (~$100), but they should last forever.
