Tank resin

I put that tank resin (from eastwood) in my tank about 5 years ago but I heard the new fuels will destroy the resin. Anyone know about that?

I find it a little hard to believe something sold 5 years ago, intended to be put in a fuel tank would break apart due to, I'm assuming the concern here is ethanol. Gas hasn't changed that much since then that I'm aware of..

Agreed. Ethanol has been around way more than 5 years. Your tank should be fine.

Contact Eastwood and ask them. I agree with fladoodle and FortyNiner . . . ethanol fuel was common 5 years ago.
