Remove Ethanol From Petrol

Not all funnily enough - the California Cycleworks ones work with ethanol perfectly well, it's just the OEM Ducati ones that don't seem to, even after they had supposedly fixed the issue - Mmmm I wonder what their belts are like?

what's ya point?

 

:Hilarious:

 

yeh, no doubt they scavenged the part from some shitty other engine knowing them!

 

Deformation of Ducati, shame on you :Sorry:

 

Shame they don't make tanks for Streetfighters..

 

Must have missed that Chris.

In what way did it get everyone's attention??

 

Just that it was the only 99 Octane fuel available at the time, plus sold at a 'Supermarket' price.

 

It looks as though it is still being overlooked that WATER related to Ethanol is more the enemy here than Ethanol itself when it comes to detrimental effects on tanks made from PA6.

Indeed. And ions within the water, i.e. dissolved salts, when it comes to effects on metal components.

 

and steel presumably, if it attracts water, which then rusts the tank from the inside...

 

Seen a few tanks rot from the inside out, normal around the bottom seams (petrol floats on water).
