South Member 323 Member For: 18y 4m 3d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 01/09/09 08:24 AM Share Posted 01/09/09 08:24 AM Is the sugar/salt really a major concern these days?We have a sock filter attached to the pump, then a really fine filter in the line, that should be more than ample to catch grains. Besides wouldnt salt/sugar disolve in petrol, isnt ethanol sugar based? How much damage could it potentially do, how would it do it, and is it any worse than getting a dodgy tank of fuel from a crapola servo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean why would you...when you can just run a key up the side instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
