Stuart,
Actually, the problem the gas line antifreeze solves is water in the
fuel line due to condensation. It used to be much more of a problem
when carburetors were widely used. Over her in the colonies, the mix
of the petrol is changed with the season. In New Jersey, in the 1970s
I had one car that would suddenly stop running each year when the
temperature first dropped below the '30s F. I had to give it a shot
of fuel additive to get it going. The alcohol absorbs the moisture
and allows the gasoline to burn.
By the way, I wintered over in Leicestershire during 1982-83. My car
was a "land crab"...a 1968 Austin 1800 that I rented from my landlord.
Cheers,
Ted
