Bad Fuel

05/20/2011 6:43 PM

A few posts back, there was one about hard starting of garden tools and lawn tractors. Some blame was attributed to alcohol in the fuel. The following discussion by Stihl explains a lot of what the problems are. http://www.stihlusa.com/information/info_fuelconcerns.html

Thanks for the informatiion ronseto.

I would agree. I think that the ethanol creates some problems on it's own, but water content is the true culprit.
