Remember that ethanol will attack any natural rubber, plain plastic or fibreglass components in fuel systems and damage them.
Fuel system components need to be made from ethanol-resistant materials when using fuels with ethanol in them.
Ethanol also strips rust, varnish, and gums from inside fuel tanks and fuel systems and this debris can block fuel lines, filters and small orifices in components such as carburettors.
