Hi,
I try to ride my motorbike as much as possible to avoid the gas just sitting in the tank.
It has been sitting for months with a full tank. (.75 g)
I am aware that gas DOES go bad, just not sure how long it takes.
Does the oil and gas separate like water and vinegar when stored?
Also, I am asking this question because my carb is running like $hit.
It seems to me that I can not get a constant tune..
I wait to let it warm up before tuning, and I get a good tune at 1.5 turns out for the slow speed (that slotted screw in the barrel linkage) and 1.5 for the high speed setting.
(This is not a float bowl carb that comes on the center mount China engine setup a lot of people on this site runs.)
But then it cools down and I cant start it. I have to retune for cold.
I ran those setting on that carb since i built the bike and now I just cant keep a tune.
I am thinking it may be the old gas?
So does old gas mess make it difficult to tune a carby?
