<VV> FW: corvair carburetors - pump cups

[Sethracer at aol.com]

Wasn't there (pardon me) a "Source", that supplied Viton cups for the  
accelerator pumps. Are these still available? Would Viton be better resistant to 
 the Ethanol in the gas? I'm no chemist, but ethanol works the same way on  
me!

You  bought old stock rubber that was already partially deteriorated OR

IS ethanol in your gasoline?

You said - 3 times - but you did not  say over what time period.  Those of 
us 
in ethanol states (most now)  are changing accelerator pump cups (new 
rubber) 
every 2 to 3  years.
