I did think I understood that the problem with gasohol for airplanes was incompatibility with some rubber parts of
the fuel system.

That's what I've always heard too, but I've never been able to get anyone to back it up with info about SPECIFIC parts
that are in danger. In particular, I'd really like to know what SPECIFIC parts I have to change in my IO-360-A1A's
fuel system so I don't have to worry about alcohol. (It's in an experimental, so legality isn't an issue.) At the
same time, I see all manner of decades-old cars & trucks running for many years on gas that's part alcohol, with all
original fuel system parts, with no ill effects whatsoever. So I'm pretty close to writing off the whole ethanol fuel
system damage thing as an old wives' tale, but not yet willing to bet the farm on it.
