REFLECTOR: Atkinson fuel sight gauges

[vance atkinson via Reflector]

I make them, and I will say not all pure auto gasoline is equal.  Some 
companys put tailings of other chemicals in their fuel just to get rid 
of the stuff.

What that means is there can be some other nefarious chemicals in the 
gasoline that the mfg will deny.

20 years ago or so (before ethanol) the auto fuel was pretty much what 
they said it was.  So it was safe.

The diluted Ethanol wont hurt the clear bubble, nor will MOST auto fuels 
without Ethanol. But Ethanol will attack the white plastic background.  
So I have switched to aluminum as a background because builders are 
planning to use Ethanol laced fuel.  I don't recommend it and I don't 
run it in my plane and I sleep at night.
