RE: [Chrysler300] ethanol-eaten fuel pumps





Not all synthetic materials used in earlier fuel pumps, lines and carburetors were soluble in corn gas.  I think those that fabricated those earlier devices with ethanol-resistant materials were more lucky than enlightened.  Who knew?

 

I am convinced that those that supported and mandated corn gas did know but cynically ignored the effects on letter cars and anything else left over from time when “gasoline” was extracted and formulated from oil (and TCP, TEL, detergents & etc.).  Ethanol remains a lousy motor fuel at any level.  Follow the money.  I hope and expect to see motor fuel made great again.

 

Happy Fourth of July to all,

I can't understand why my wife's 1990 installed Carter fuel pump is still intact and running fine. We use a clear fuel filter to check for debris. My five year old brand X needs replaced. I will go through my receipts and find fuel pump manufacture or marketing brand.

I've used Arthur Gould Rebuilders, 5R Main st., Kings Park, New York  11754.  Ph 631 269 0093 .
They did two pumps for me but I haven't used them yet. About $110.00 plus shipping.

Three different 300s and 3 ethanol-eaten fuel pumps. They worked long enough to push the diaphragm chunks up

and clog the lines.

Has anybody had any luck finding ethanol resistant fuel pumps or can recommend a rebuilder using ethanol resistant internals ?????

Thanks
