  • Possible reason for all these RPM and bogging down issues

    It's been interesting reading all the RPM/power loss/bogging issues and I have been using most of the recommendations while addressing my own "bogging down under load" issues.
    A co-worker turned me on to two articles explaining what happens when you mix the new E10 ethanol gas with the old MTBE gas. Possibly very frightening times ahead. Keep up the good work, keep up your maintenance and be proactive with your fuel management.

    95% of all these problems are fuel related but generally dirty carbs as they are tricky getting them perfectly clean as they need to be to run correctly.

      interesting article.
      I hope this fuel mix doesnt cause any problems.
      Maybe they will label this new gas at the pumps, so we have a choice.
