"... I took apart my carburetors on my 65 110 to see if I could find out
why it is running so poorly. I was surprised to find clusters of clear
jelly-like deposits in the carb bowl. I am told this is from the ethanol in
the gas. What is the best fuel additive to clear this up? ..." "...
Yup..that's moisture and ethanol..Just add the inline filter at the left rear
wheel junction..."
John: I have always used an inline fuel filter, in the left wheel well, as
suggested above. This is a good suggestion. However, until I started
treating the fuel with every tank full, I was having loads of carburetor
fouling. The best fuel treatment I've found is Sta-Bil Ethanol Treatment Marine
Formula (the standard formula is "OK," but the Ethanol Marine Formula is
better). Once I started treating with the aforementioned chemical (about
2-years past), all fouling issues went away.
