Remove Ethanol From Petrol

I did it with 2 helmets.

 

Didn't realise you were Japanese :Wideyed:

 

I thought I had mentioned it. It must have slipped my mind. Gomen'nasai :Eggonface:

 

Think yourself lucky your not the bloater on the left

 

I know, phew !

 

It might not be down to just ethanol but fuel in general has got more aggressive over the years.

A fair few motorcyle tanks have flexible pipes internally for the fuel cap vent and overflow. Newer fuel blends seem to be very hard on these pipes.

In tank pump pipes are now normally corrugated plastic rather than traditional pipe on more modern bikes (to cope withe the newer fuel?).

 

at what point would it become cheaper tp just change it around to F.I

 

F.I ?

 

fuel injection [emoji16]

 

What?

 

i read if you put a naked flame near the filler cap when open, you can simply burn off the ethanol in the fuel

 

Video it for us

 

not sure if your messing with me or actually confused more than usual.

if carbs have issues, fit ecu and injectors [emoji5][emoji5]

 

Confused? someone is - ethanol in petrol is the discussion point in fuel injected engines

 

oh thought it was old tank, pipes and carbs
my mistake.

 

and a more modern engine and frame

 

maybe add some modern updates brakes and tyres.

Both carb and injection really ethanol is the question you see

 

so ethanol ruins non metallic tanks, even ones made this day and age?

i wouldve thought they had found some kind if liner that would stop that

 

I'm guessing the countries that make the bikes don't suffer from the same fuel probs and don't cater for the countries they export to. Can't see any other reason for manufacturing something that is destined to fail...
