There is one patch up on the flat
that's not totally clear , I had some fuel supply problems and had
to work on the machine - probably some ice crystals in the fuel ,
that gas has been in my can for a couple of months and a lot of temp
cycling .


Time for some StaBil?


I don't think so , this fuel was in a plastic container and I'm thinking
the temperature cycling caused a little condensation . I only use
non-ethanol fuel in my small engines , unless the Conoco station is closed
by the weather it was yesterday , so I only filled one can . It turned out
the carb needed a bit of tweaking , I opened the main jet adjuster screw a
half turn and it's back to runnin' like a top .
I saw the Conoco is open today when I took the wife to work , so all my
cans will be going to town when I pick her up .
