Been thinking about this whole 'ethanol in fuel' lark and was considering putting a fuel tap into the rubber fuel pipe just prior to the carb on my car. My thoughts are that I can leave the car running, flick the tap off, then let the carb drain of fuel before switching the engine off. I'm wondering if this will stop the fuel that is lying inside damaging the internals of the carb? I've changed all of my rubber lines to ethanol resistant.
That's interesting Pete, thanks for your input. I'm using the car weekly so the carb won't sit dry for long. I suppose as you say, there are good and bad points on both sides. I'm using Frosts Ethomix additive with Shell super unleaded at the moment. Perhaps this is a case of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it's
Cheers Blue, your advice combined with Petes has put me off the idea. I'm not experiencing any fuel issues so think this idea may be tinkering for the sake of it if I'm not careful.
