The latest edition of the LOCI magazine identified problems being identified with the diaphragms fitted to SU electrical fuel pumps as fitted to MK1 1800s and asked if anyone knew of a solution. These problems are apparently linked to E10.
I have found this article published by Burlen who manufacture the SU parts
www.v8register.net/articles/
Scroll down to
Burlen ethanol fuel article R14 281111.pdf - V8 Register
It provides some helpful information you may find useful covering not just the fuel pumps but hoses and carbs too and useful links into other relevant sites at
www.v8register.net/ethanol.htm
Hope this is helpful if you haven't seen it before. Does anyone have other relevant articles or experience of using E10 or above outside the UK?
Regards
David
