Problems ethanol causes in vintage cars?

The SAE J30R9 specification ("fuel injection hose") does require the hose to be proof against much more aggressive stuff than a 10% concentration of ethanol. It's proof against high concentrations of methanol, a wide range of hydrocarbons and ethers, etc. Of course, you have to be getting actual 30R9 hose, and Chinese R&D ("Reduplicate & Deceive") has taught them how to stamp whatever might strike their fancy on a part or its packaging. "Gates"? No problem. "FUEL INJECTION SAE J30R9"? Yep, can do. "HI MOM"? Sure. So we're kind of screwed, because we've decided (I guess my ballot got lost in the mail) that nothing else matters except for "free" trade. :roll:



So, okeh, someone c'mon and find fault with any of these facts. I dare ya!

I can't find fault with any of it.
