Re: [FWDLK] '55 Dodge Red Ram fuel pump needed.

Hey Lou -

It's illegal to introduce E15 into the fuel systems of cars older than 2001.

> From Wikipedia:

"In October 2010, the EPA granted a waiver to allow up to 15% of ethanol 
blended with gasoline to be sold only for cars and light pickup trucks with 
a model year of 2007 or later, representing about 15% of vehicles on U.S. 
roads. In January 2011, the waiver was expanded to authorize use of E15 to 
include model year 2001 through 2006 passenger vehicles. "

Have your pump rebuilt with modern gasket material and you shouldn't have 
any problems with the current E10 blend.
