[6pack] Other 10% ethanol concerns

[Robert McBride]

Well if you want to spend money now,,,,why not start burning aviation 100LL it
has a long shelf life is real 100 octane has more than enough lead for the
TR-6 and no road taxes...or ethanol....  Last I heard it was about $4.55 a
gallon...  When I stored my TR-6 at the airport that was all I would burn in
her....  Bob

  Folks,

  OK, so unleaded AND 10% ethanol. In addition to carb
  floats and diaphragms...should I be concerned w/ stock
  valve seats and guides?
  I remember a debate that raged several years ago about
  not necessarily requiring valve seat upgrades for
  unleaded, but at the time I don't think the advice was
  in the context of 10% ethanol formulations.

  I'd rather spend the money now, than incur engine
  damage later.

  Thanks,
  Pete
