Default RE: Drain the carbs

ORIGINAL: Blackhammer

Thanks, I forgot to mention the cause of the bad fuel is because he took off the gas tank to have it repainted but did not drain the carbs. The crook who told him he could do it took his money and after 6 weeks, had not even stripped off the old paint. After my sone shipped out, I went for the tank and the money and had to go see several of this guy's customers to get back the tank and his money. The tank has fresh fuel in it, but we had this problem in the spring and I took it in to a shop and they told me the gas would go bad quickly. Well, I thought that would be the problem after 8 weeks of sitting. I will try this tonight and let you all know if I can get her started.

Thanks
Gas won't go bad in 8 weeks. It loses octane over time but 2 months is no worry.
