will last indefinitely with just about any fuel. Expect to pay up to £10 per
metre. It's available from various reputable hose suppliers in the UK. Other
well-known manufacturers of rubber products such as Goodyear will have
equivalents.

Subject: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Ethanol in petrol
The quality or rubber hoses available for fuels lines does appear to be
worsening. I am seeing more cases of premature failures with new hose compared
to old. In many cases the old hose will last longer than new. Adding more
Ethanol will only make this worse. If someone knows a good barnd of hose to use
that lasts it would be good information to share. Its worth paying the premium
to do the job once rather than having to replace hoses every few years.

As Martin says with regards to the “rubber” fuel pipes, my Rickman had most of
the pipes changed last year, it’s last remaining one early this year, that one
had just developed a pinhole leak, then after I’d carried out a pre MOT check a
few months later I had to change two more, these were only changed last year,
they hadn’t failed yet but we’re cracking badly all along it’s length. These
pipes were supposed to be ethanol safe. Spare fuel pipe is now kept in stock in
my shed in several sizes, just in case? No I know it will be used in the not
too distant future.Bill

My recollection of work done to fit cars for using ethanol fuel in the S
American market was to eliminate the use of 'Mazak(?)'which became porous, not
quite what was wanted with a carburettor. It may be that the fuel was pure
ethanol in this case.
