Default Sticky float valve

In the last 4 days I have had my float valve stick in the closed position, stalling my car. 3 times today alone in the July 4th parade! I run a modern float valve in a stock zenith sidebowl carb. Is it the ethanol softening the tip of the valve causing it to stick? I haven't used gas treatments before but I'm beginning to wonder if I need to start!!!!!!!
