Default MS Blue float / Ethanol ?
Forgive me if this has been thrashed, but I can't find It. Is the 3rd gen blue float in my factory reman Marvel Schebler 0320 carb ethanol tolerant ? I am considering using E91 instead of efree 91 Mogas, which has been excellent for over 200 hours.

Default Marvel Scheblebler blue float / Alcohol
I received an answer from ACS regarding their MS rebuilt carbs. If they have the solid blue plastic float, they are alcohol tolerant.

Default Carb
I use a metal float in my Marvel carb. I think I got it from Kelly, no applicable AD's.
