But I remember years ago what looked like mud in the float bowls of carbs. Don't see that anymore around here.

Ethanol makes a great fuel system cleaner... as long as you are willing to overlook some of the side effects.

Just a heads up. Lot of dealers getting ope in for start issues with new can of trufuel. Turns out the canned trufuel is bad. Several dealers reporting seeing this.


Just so you know just because you buy canned trufuel it can be bad. Swap in mix you did and see if they will start then.


One dealer =  Don’t use Tru-Fuel. I keep getting equipment in my shop and the only thing wrong with it is the Tru-Fuel is bad. This is new fresh Tru-Fuel. It’s like you get a bad batch or something. Buy ethanol free gas and put 2-cycle oil in it.


Two dealer =  second the info about trufuel..hear alot of that in the industry from shops, other techs, oems, reps.


I'll stop there.

Do you mind if I share this? IF it's OK to share, would you like me to credit you in the mention? (I only know your first name)

No need to credit me for anything. Share away.
