You said it Steptoe

I don't care what they try,, this little black duck isn't going to stop riding these old machines

from what i understand of it,
your better off using premium unleaded
than using an ethanol blend.
but if using premium, u want to run the carbs
on the leaner side of things to get a benefit
if any.
Theyll try and do anything to phase out older vehicles.

the guys on the .com site where talking about this some time ago, with the bad effects it was having on fuel systems,,
one fella had installed water traps to his fuel lines and most of his probs went away,

I remember yrs ago with the red motors in the our cars,we used to put a cup of metho in the tanks in winter to keep condensation down to nill,, the metho soaked up the water ,and then burnt with the fuel,

seeing as that is one of the big things with e10, the absorbing moisture , pretty much the same as brake fluid ,with the same result as brake lines and cylinders, getting the deposit along the lines,
 
 I wonder if a metho to fuel ratio could be worked on to do the same as yrs ago,and maybe take at least that negative part out of e10

Yep already started, I went to fill up a couple of days ago and E10 and the 2 premiums were all that was on the pumps.....
BASTARDS

On the news tonite,
apparently unleaded fuel will be phased out
by july next year, what a joke.   
looks like we'll have to run on premium unleaded,
ive tried the ethanol blend and that ran like crap
and in reality  its not designed for our bikes.
