Is this pump compatible with ethanol blends? I've had 2 044 clones burn out on me because of the blended fuel.

Dont know haven't use it yet. But I can tell it looks like a genuine 044. I did plan on e85 plus stealth as a feed to it. Good luck.

Mine is going on an airplane which only burns non-ethanol fuel so can't say yes/no. Sorry. However some of our guys do use car gas and have not heard of any issues on our forum at http://www.vansairforce.net/

if your asking about E85 I do not know for sure. E10 normal yes. Make sure you have proper voltage to the pump or the pump will not last. that is what makes them go out more than Ethanol.

This pump is approved by Bosch for pump fuel which is E10 (the normal stuff). A fairly large number of folks have and continue to run this pump with E85 without issue, but like I said its not approved for it by the manufacture. If you want you can call Bosch and ask.

Yes, it is listed Compliant With CA's EPA Regulations (rated @ 125hr of service) and has a spark arrestor.However Note: Dometic's warranty is little strange, it states your warranty is void if you use an alcohol fuel blends at all.The manual also states is supposed burn oil (ie they wont fix). It's not supposed to and I think most don't (if broken inat < 50% load) Lifan Power (another big importer of this gen) states up to e15 gas blend is ok, if you add STA-Bill.

Sorry, but I couldn't find any info about this pump and diesel fuel. Suggest you contact Carter for further information.

Go to the autobest website and check there applications page, although I'd advise against buying this fuel pump. The one I bought worked for two days and then burned up. You should buy from your local parts store

Victoria, I can only respond to the issues I experienced. The cart would run for a short time then it would cough out. You need to check the rubber gas lines for sludge build up. I discovered the fuel pump needs to have a marine grade stabilizer added to the gas to keep the hoses clear of debris. If it is not the hoses, you may want to disconnect them and try starting the cart or blow air through it. If it doesn't start, you will want to change the pump. Good luck, I hope this helped.

Due to there being regular (Non Ethanol/middle grade) gasoline at the pumps now, that is what I have and use in my generator. However, the best choice is to purchase (if you have LP or Natural Gas) a fuel adapter kit from the US Carburetion Kit Center (www.uscarb.com) so you can utilize either Gasoline and/or LP/Natural Gas. LP/Natural Gas will not gum up or damage the Carburetor like Ethanol Gas will.

On other Briggs and Stratton things I have it says ok with up to 10% ethanol fuel so as long as you don't use E85 I think you are ok. If you don't use the piece of equipment often I just use true fuel. Of course it's more expensive but since it doesn't have ethanol it doesn't ruin anything. On the package it says ok for up to 2 year storage. Also if you want ethanol free gas you can go to a marina if one is close by. Their are some websites that list ethanol free fuel by zip code.

I use EVOO in mine and don't have the same issue. You can pump that thing really hard without having to worry about damaging it. Pump until it won't pump anymore and try a different oil maybe.

This fuel pump will work fine. I replaced mine with the same pump. Runs great at full throttle to low idle.

I use Lucas as an additive. If your car has been sitting up that long with out being driven or cranked in a year. I would drain all fluids. The ethanol they have in fuel now will mess up your injectors.

I got this pump for my 1985 40 hp johonson, but the fuel nipple to the carburators was way to small. It is possible to change the nipple. Best regards Kristian Rygh

e85 is ethanol fuel, and mixing it with more gas would be considered an e85/gasoline mixture. You will need to mix it with a lot more gas, to get the percentage of gas comparable to typical gas, which would defeat the purpose of mixing, since you have to use so much gasoline.Maybe you were asking if you can run e85 fuel in this. If that's the case, you would need to modify it so much that you may as well buy a version that runs on ethanol (they are available). Better yet, diesel.

Just did a little research and according to corvette forum, JC Whitney, ep386 is the correct pump. I purchased the fuel sending unit as well and it came with the strainer.

I have a 40 gallon planted tank and I use the 406. It works great...however, you have to be careful that you do not break the priming handle...mine came broken but I just fill the canister before I plug it back in...and the impeller cover wears out and gets loose and then you have this clacking noise which can only be fixed by replacing the impeller cover. The old models had clips on both sides to hold it down but this model has only one clip and after awhile it gets loose. I have a few extra covers just in case. They are not that expensive.

The one I got said it did in the description. I live in California were we have all kinds of stuff in our fuel. The one I got is working fine, the one that came stock on the truck was not made for ethanol and I think that was why it and so many other ranger fuel hoses fail.

In my small town we have no stations with ethanol free gasoline. My nearby Briggs & Stratton man advised fresh start plus if I were buying local - but because it is so good, use it with all gasoline. No expensive service work in 2 years!

Suggest using Marine grade sta-bil with a little sea formin it if using gas with ethanol in it. I've had alot of trouble with this type fuel for my lawn mowers and other yard equipment. The Marine sta-bil and sea form has done the trick and eliminated the problems.
