Oh and one more thing , I don't understand why they designed an injector that isn't compatible with ethanol , being they have been putting it in gas mixture for almost a 100 yrs now .

Ethanol was not commonly found in pump gasoline before 1992 in any appreciable level that would have required components that were ethanol compatible.

Seals had to be modified in the fuel systems of all gasoline vehicles, from inexpensive buna material to more expensive materials like Viton, several multiples more costly. All the cost of more environmentally friendly energy.

I doubt that anyone driving a Corvette "needs" one. It's essentially a matter of "want" not "need."

Soooo is it just zr1 injectors that cant handle ethanol ? My 87 vette has over 200k on it and I have never had an injector issue is why I'm asking ! And it would seem the same materials would be used in the manufacturing process .
