[LINK] E10

[stephen at melbpc.org.au]

Be very careful regarding ethanol and garden etc power tools and even for
many current motorcycles. We've just had both the mower & whipper-snipper
severly stuffed by ONE use of E10 (10% ethanol). This disolved fuel lines
and rubber o-rings and gaskets. By using plastic glue instead of rubber o 
rings, and by replacing gaskets and all the fuel lines today I've finally
got them both going again, but it was a *major* pain. Fuel lines etc just
fall apart, after only one load. The town service station has now stopped 
selling just E10 fuel but for unsuspecting locals here the damage is done.

Cheers,
Stephen
