An interesting and timely topic. My driving season came to an end before I was fully prepared. I had about 10 gallons of 93 octane fuel with Ethanol in the tank. No gas treatment or Marvel oil either. I decided to buy the pump for my Flo Fast cans. I went and purchased 7.5 gallons of 110 Octane Cam2 fuel. When I got home, I used the pump to siphon out 7.5 gallons of the regular fuel from the Cobra which I treated and will use for my snowblower, generator, etc. I then used the pump to put the 7.5 gallons of treated 110 octane fuel back in the Cobra. I read lots of warnings about static electricity before using the pump. I did use the ground wire and connected it to the Lemans cap flange, but I was definitely wondering how well that flange was grounded. I am hoping the aluminum body helped a bit. Anyway, I did not blow up but was a bit nervous.
