I bought a 250 on eBay and various parts to make it look good. Took the carb apart and softened up the diaphragm enough to get it running, while waiting on a kit. I've got the good carb, forget what is, been two months with fuel in it. I tried starting it. Dumped the fuel in a ziti pan and WTF!!! I've got water, I've got brown goo and I've got what looks like my white ramen from my days in college. I'm assuming that's the 'white death' magnesium dance with ethanol. How can all this crazy happen in two months? My other saws aren't doing this. Ive got two 10-10s with fuel in them. I hope this is not happening to them. How do I get the white crap out and prevent this getting worse.
