Someone told me that ethanol is corrosive to aluminum. Is this true?

Doc Custer

Extremely so ! Chuck

Both Methanol, and Ethanol are corrosive to untreated aluminum
if left dormant in the lines, components, etc.
In the early days of racing, we would flush the fuel system at the end
of a day's event.
