Ethanol Free gas

[rjsdolp]

Im with you on this!

I just use the Puregas app and use non ethanol in all small engines I own.

I am an intermittent user of my saw. I have never had a fuel-related problem even though the saw often sits idle for up to 6 months sometimes. But I would still prefer E0 when I can get it.

If you’re using ethanol fuel you will have issues sooner or later. There is an app … Puregas that is very useful.

That's how I used to run my generator until I had to replace the fuel pump, witha10 Hp. Briggs.
I'm not sure if that caused it to fail, or if it was coincidence.

I've ran stuff dry and left the float bowls full. I have heard guys say running stuff dry kills rubber parts. I can't say if that's true or not.

I've used regular fuel for years without much problem. One mower we have is over 30yrs old, gets regular unleaded and runs fine. I think it's more hype to use non ethanol gas than anything and you are wasting your money.
Boy will I get attacked for this.

I’m sure a lot depends on machine manufacturer and how long fuels stands before it’s used. I know it screws up everything Stihl that I own. Puregas app is very helpful.

Here's something weird: I have Echo's biggest leaf blower. I can let it sit with regular gas, and nothing happens. Can't do that with any other small engine I have.
