Where the alky is ETHANOL (corn whiskey) you can be more relaxed about alky remaining in the tank even at the 5% level... So, while your assumption that if you dilute sufficiently you can leave it is right on, you will have a bigger margin of safety if you can find ethanol based gasahol... denny - in Michigan where we can get alky free mogas... First off, methanol is not corrosive to brass. Second I do not think there is much differance between ethanol and methanol as for as corrosive effects on synthetic rubber. Third, the alcohol in mogas is a lot less corrosive to rubber than the toulene in 100LL. Any plastic floats left out there?
