Re: [DML] Solution to Ethanol in Gasoline

[kKoncelik@xxxxxxx]

We experienced that from Arizona back in 2000 and the fuel boot we make is  
resistant to the ethenol additive to the point it swells about 5% which was 
less  than the original boot swells in regular gas.
We also went through a learning curve with the fuel hose.
The one that we were selling (fuel hose) was good in any liquid used for  
fuel and showed 0% swelling plus the boot.
 
We are constantly upgrading the material on the boot to conform with the  
changing gas.  
We did stop making the high chemical resistant hose because people shopped  
price not and for lack of a better word quality.  While the hoses being  used 
around are a good grade of material they do move a bit.  
 
I am again looking into making another batch and we can see if there is  
interest in a truely chemical resistant hose that will never fail in gas or  
ethenol.
 
So the current boots we make will do fine with todays gas and we are  looking 
into the future (pun intended) for future batches so  you will  always have 
the best available.
 
A number of vendors sell these parts and I will let them chime in whenever  
they wish.
