It has been found that Ethanol, which is added to unleaded fuel, can attack the normal plastic SU floats. This new SU STAY-UP Float is resistant to modern Ethanol-based Fuels and has a military spec closed-cell construction making it puncture-proof. The adjustable height Float Arm means minor alterations to Float levels are quick & easy where required.
The material was used for military installations in the 1980s where a guaranteed fail-safe operation was critical which makes this Float virtually unsinkable.

Check before you use E10 Petrol in your Classic Car.
E10 means petrol contains up to 10% renewable ethanol. To date, petrol in the UK has contained up to 5% renewable ethanol (known as E5).
During summer 2021, the standard (or ‘Premium’) petrol grade in the UK will become E10.
If your vehicle is not compatible with E10 fuel, you will still be able to use E5 by purchasing the ‘Super’ grade petrol from most filling stations.
Filling stations will clearly label petrol as either E10 or E5.
Ethanol is known to degrade rubber and many metals and alloys used in Classic Car Fuel systems
If you do fill up with E10, dilute with E5 as soon as possible.
