I just had to replace all rubber bits in my lawn mowing equipment, they all fell apart because of that alcohol in fuel. Even primmer bulbs cracked and started to leak

Put an ounce of TCW3 two stroke oil in with every other fill up, been doing that for a couple years with only E10 fuel to burn out here in Colorado. Bikes will sit at times for a month between rides, but same gas will be in there for months at a time over the winter, and carbs are clean as a whistle. Same thing with the lawn mower, it sits under the upside down wheel barrow in the back yard for 6 months and starts on the first pull.
Ethanol is a reality so figuring out how to live with it is about what we have to do anymore.Last edited by Bonz; 05-29-2015, 07:41 PM.Howard

BTW, ZRX carbs have the same spacing as the XS11... http://www.xs11.com/forum/showthread.php?t=35462Comment

Thankfully, I can avoid that garbage. Except for the gov't subsidy. I haven't figured out how to not pay for that.Marty (in Mississippi)
