Has anyone else noticed that the 'new' formula gasoline is eating all the rubber fuel lines off our older machines? Fuel lines used to last 10 years, now they are cracked and stiff in 2.
It's also causing electric fuel pumps to fail based on the season when they change the formula from cold weather to spring?
In April, more electric fuel pumps die than any other month, based on personal observations.

Input?

E10 has been the way of life here for more than 10 yrs. Straight gasoline not available at service stations. Haven't had any noticeable issues with it but I'm fully aware fuel mileage won't be as good.

In Canada , Shell V Power Super doesn't have ethanol. Same with Esso super. Check out your local station.

We have a couple stations that serve up the Ethol free, but it's about 50 cents a gallon more. Small price to pay for escaping the grief.
