Mark,
That almost certainly sounds like the EZ poxy that ships with the kit and
NOT Jeffco (the really good stuff).

My understanding is that the EZ poxy holds up just fine with aviation fuel
but I'd be VERY hesitant to use it in conjunction with fuel containing
ethanol.

I may have missed, but are you flying an auto conversion?

Peter
