Since my MVs will sit for a time and goe months
between fillups, even if I run them once every
two weeks, I've taken to adding gas stabil to
their fuel when I fill them up. I've not had
problems yet on the ferret, bit I know the
dingo's going to be angry when I put the plugs in
and put the dash back together. I'll probably
just drain the fuel tank to be thorough and run
that gas through the mower.
Gas can start to change apparently after about a month of sitting.
