Federally mandated ethanol deteriorates the rubber used in most cars made before the 1980's.
That's the valve seal from my 1958 Karmann Ghia's fuel shutoff. It's swollen about 25% from the original size, The ragged holes correspond to the main fuel position. I'm going to have to make a new part - originals are no longer available.
Thanks, CONgress!
