A fellow who rents my old '91 Nissan Sunny accidentally put in E85 gasohol. He drove it about 20 kilometers before having the tank drained at B-Quick & refilling with real benzine.

 

Will this have done significant damage to my carburetor, fuel lines, etc? 

If it still runs ok and no petrol leaks and smell then most likely no damage from such a short exposure time.

Probably cleaned everything out ... anyway don't worry you only paid 30,000 for it so no loss ....

30,000 is a big loss in my book, JAS21.  But so far car's OK according to the renter.

Just keep your fingers crossed as it may have had an adverse affect on non metallic components that may show up in the future...

Yeah I do worry about that. But I suspect the replacement parts may not be all that expensive or difficult to find.
