Ridge I had to replace the same fuel line kit with the rubber stopper on a echo hedge trimmer and a blower due to ethanol. Now EVERYTHING that isn't a daily driver gets only non ethanol fuel. I may even spring for it in the trucks now that I can get it without driving across town with jerry cans to get it.
Which brings me to another great product of our wonderful bureaucratic oligarchy: FREAKIN' NON-VENTED GAS CANS!!!!!! Whatever moron came up with that idea I will seriously punch in the nose if presented with the opportunity.

Them non vented cans just about require a funnel Bradford. I just visited three hardware stores on Sat. trying to find the yellow pour spout replacement for a vented can. No Joy. Funny thing, I found an old galvanized metal can on the shelf that had warning labels all over it, it isn't approved for gasoline but that is exactly what it was in a former life. The label on the side says "Iron Sides", with the large fill in the center of the top, I'll call it a vent, and the pour spout has two sizes to pour from. $17.00 The label on the fill said "Utility Can".
IDGAF if the Feds approved it or not, it holds gas just fine. I have a store to buy non-ethanol fuel but they work less hours than my day job and are not open weekends so they are never open when I need them.
