Mite want to drop your spare 'rubber' tipped needle in some modern gas to soak until u need it. Change the gas in storeage container of the needle every 6 months or at least once a year.
This would be a good test to see how well it holds up to 'gasohol" AS WELL AS any other changes that mite be made to gasoline over the future years.

Just because some current materials used for resilient tipped needles are compatable with current fuel formulations does NOT mean that they will be compatible with any FUTURE formulations.

However, i'm sure your solid tipped needle will be the best service over all unless maybe future fuels get somekind of acid added to them.
