Thanks Peter
Re: Fuel
Cheers for your reply, I used the sib today and it was OK. I always run the carb dry after each trip when flushing the OB out.
Fuel
Hi,
My fuel tank has not been used for a couple of months. I believe the petrol in the tank will still be OK but is there any problem with the petrol in the pipe leading to the connector. The tank is kept in a damp free dry garage. Cheers for any replies
