First Casualty of E85
My first casualty of E85. This is the bulb on my Harbor Freight siphon. It only lasted for about 100 gallons of siphoning. I guess rubber and alcohol don't get along.

Why is this in the "Issues, Warranty, Recalls" section? This isn't a part of your car that failed..

I don't think continuously overworking your penis pump will improve things any faster...

Is there a concern with where the dissolved rubber ended up? I mean is it in the fuel filter, engine, cat, etc??

I mean I love harbor freight, they have many things that suit my needs perfectly but, failed after 100 gallons? Im guessing you got your moneys worth out of it.

That's not an e85 casualty... that's Harbor Freight worse-than-china quality parts.
