E85 Ethanol and Your Old Car

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

When you start asking questions about converting you American classic cars to E85 ethanol, you’ll hear a lot of people telling you that it can’t be done, because the alcohol will eat all the rubber components, and to an extent this is true, it will eat all the rubber components in your fuel system, being as how fossil fuels are made from oil, they won’t eat your rubber components. But don’t let this discourage you from converting your car to E85, it’s a better running, higher performing and cleaner burning fuel for your car, and to start on your conversion, you might want to start by pulling all of the rubber fuel lines off your car, and bending up some nice steel fuel lines, and for those areas where you need rubber lines, just go a head and use the urethane plastic lines to replace the short sections that you need, you got to remember that plastic, while it will bend around corners, it’s a lot more likely to kink then rubber is, so use it in as straight of a line as you can.

I know from personal experience that when you are looking for a car in this saturated marketplace, it can be a bit of a mine field. I did what most sensible people do and endeavoured to test drive as many different models as possible and try to keep track of which ones were superior. This is a time consuming task and one that will inevitably end up in many wasted hours sat in cars that are mortifyingly disappointing.
