Corn-liquor gas (known as ethanol) is the culprit. The alcohol attacks rubber in fuel/carburetor systems. If an old rubber gas line is damaged by the gummint's corn liquor fuel, it could leak. Depending on where it leaks - well, one gets the picture. In real life, the most costly fallout is replacing the vulnerable parts with expensive after-market parts that can withstand alcohol. It's the dumb, blind gummint - mesin' up near everything it bumps into. As one who owns and rides older motorcycles, I think I know the skinny on this.
