Can anyone tell me if this is E10 compliant? I can't seem to find the answer on T'internet.

I use it for diesel hoses for a while, no probs yet.
Seems to be better than other brands as no visible cracks in the ~5 years they are on.

It's this that the engine rebuilders have used on my injection fuel rail feed hoses. So looks like I need to change them as the supplied link says this.

Caution: Do not use for pressure lines on fuel injected engines.

I use Gates Barricade hose for my heaters - R14 and 100% ethanol proof. They do an injector high pressure version. Not cheap but makes my heater fuel lines future proof.

I have some Gates Barricade injection hose - R14 Part number 4219BF, 5/16"  to give you something to work on.

Thanks Rick I have a length of the brickworks correct hose. I was hoping the hose the engine rebuilder had used was the correct stuff as it's a bit of a faff replacing it.

Your hose should have the pressure rating marked on it if it is rated for low pressure, well, it is marked on the stuff that I have.

I do use E5 (occasionally) but as I'm changing my injectors I thought I may as well change the hoses as well. And may as well use the E10 hose that I already have.
