Michael,I was considering a "wet centre section" fuel tank using fibreglassbut was concerned about alcohol reacting with the resin. I read thatepoxy vinyl ester resin does not react with alcohol, and many othercompounds, so my plans are back on track (as long as the tanktemperature stays below 150 degF).Here is a link showing what chemical resistance epoxy vinyl esterresin has.http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/chemi ... ,JohnW>But the key to building a composite fuel tank that is compatiblewith todays etahnol blend fuels is to use vinylester resin as this isimpervious to alcohols.Michael in Maine>________________________________________________________________________________
