neon14 Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 How are yall dealing with ethanol in your lawn equipment, generators, and stuff? This E10 fuel seems to be causing a lot of problems. Is there a fuel additive that works good? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txtom Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Had to replace fuel lines on the weedeater due to ethanol eating them up. My Dad was in Indianapolis the 500 week, and his party visited a shop where the guy showed them some product that is designed to treat ethanol to prevent starting issues and stuff like that. I will try to find the name. The guy used it in everything he had, including seasonal use engines--snowblowers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4cylfordz Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 I dunno if you have a Rudys BBQ around you but they sell ethanol free gas. I'm not thinking an additive will do much good as nothing will really remove the alcohol from the fuel (safely) which is what is eating you lines up. I'd say either replace the lines or find gas without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say either replace the lines or find gas without it Not to mention it sucks up moisture in the air and can seriously foul up small carbs really quick. Usally bogs down when you hit the gas but idles fine. Ethonol is horrible stuff for engines and it is really bad for the enviorment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
