?? Does 2 stroke fuel mix go sour if allowed to experiance freezing temps? My beastie ran like the proverbial striped primate when I docked her last fall- now she will run at full throttle only, and THAT only after I fly down a slope that gets me close to top speed and pop the clutch. Once I pull the clutch, I have to rev the mill to keep it going- once allowed to die, I have to go through the same routine to get it going again. It has not enough power to push me along on level ground without some assistance. I have checked for spark, cleared the carb, checked the muffler for squatters (nesting insects) and the air cleaner for cloggs- the only thing I can think of is that the fuel mix was in a (semi) sealed can outside. I saw no contamination, but then I might not even recognise it. I will buy fresh go-go sauce and see what that does-
