Hi Mike,
Plus when the Arco stations, about fifteen years ago, here in
California first introduce methanol, ethanol and alcohol-gasoline
mixtures, it destroyed many of the older cars using polyethylene,
polyester, neoprene and polyurethane in their carburetors, fuel pumps,
and lines. Carburetor kits no longer use those parts.
God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O
