In case you were wondering what ethenol will do to your truck if it sits for more than a few months, here's the results.

The pump module was nasty.

The ethanol ate the supply hose completely through.

It also ate the liner out of the tank! I don't recommend using ethanol based gas in anything that will sit for more than a few days.

This is exactly why I don't out ethanol is anything I own. A couple dollars more on each fill up is well worth it.
I will never run it in this truck again. I just put 15 gallons of non ethanol in it. I'm my defense I never ran ethanol in this truck. This is from the previous owner. It sat for about 2 years before I got it. I got running then it broke down again.

Everytime your add to this topic I think I need a big body Jeep truck. Then I have to watch the videos of it and want one even worse.

My little bro could probably be convinced to sell his yellow J10. He wants to build the Orange truck into an off-road rig but doesn’t have the funds. And I might be winding up with a rust free SWB bed today.
