[QUOTE="Wild and Free, post: 127150, member: 406"] Could be, I know on the farm in the 80's that all we ran too in bulk so that's why I was thinking of it this way, I was a big user actually nothing but up until a few years ago and had been having issues with random small engines for several years and suspected the ethanol but what put me over the edge knowing for sure was buying a brand new generator and filled it with ethanol and about a month later had gas running out of the carb, took it back where I bought it and was laughed out the door and explained in great detail that there is no small engine mfg that warranties any fuel related component due to ethanol use anymore, also had to buya new carb for a new generator that had never seen use yet, talked to several other small engine shops and they all had exact same story about fuel and warranty ect. After that I had even more issues with pretty much all of my small engines and I then made the switch to 91 ethanol premium and now wish I had done it sooner, been 3-4 years now and never have to mess with carb adjustments anymore and the things start and run way better too most that I had to mess with for an hour every year now start with 1-2 pulls the first time use every year.
