Klaus and George,

Yeah, I know, corn squeezin's are for drinkin'. But alcohol has been a fuel for a long time in other parts of the world. The Germans used it in their tanks in WWII.

Klaus - Yup that alcohol eats up the old rubber. I almost blew myself up because I didn't find one small hose in the fuel line of my 164E, in which I burn E10. The 1800 I am redoing is going to be ALL new, so it will have NO rubber in it what-so-ever, even if I DON'T burn ethanol.

If I decide to do this, I will make all of my findings known on this board...


p.s. Don't hate me George ;>)
