No more local Ethanol free fuel for me...
We did have a local station that handled 100 percent gas. No more. They had tank troubles with their diesel tank malfunctioning. They decided to discontinue it's use, and change over the ethanol free. to diesel. now they offer e85, e15 and regular e10 and diesel.
This is sad for the chainsaw, weed eater and a lot of motorcycle crowd. Not counting the boaters. They're hacked about it too. Now the closest place to sell alcohol free fuel is 10 mi away. Fortunately, the lake I will be boating on with my 2 cycle pontoon has a couple stations that handle it. it's still inconvenient though. |

They all sell something called 100LL (One hundred octane, low lead). It's pricey but you probably don't need huge amounts. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com |

As long as you can keep it moving there isn't really a problem with E-10, you just can't store it. |

If so they seem to be a little less prone to having the carb gum up. In my experience the problems arise when the gas and motor sit around for a while. You could keep a smaller tank of 100LL on hand and run the motor on it for a few minutes before shutting down. That would help to avoid carb problems. The other big issue with ethanol fuel is phase separation in the tank which results in an accumulation of water. The judicious use of Stabil and/or SeaFoam can help with that but I'd also add a good water separating filter like a Racor between your fuel tank and the motor. People are even doing this with dinghy motors. |

If you are not running the boat regularly and burning E-10 you can accumulate water. As bad as E10 is, it does soak up the water and in small amounts burn it off as steam. It can actually help performance. Once you get that much water you are going to have to drain the tank some way. |

There is a huge increase in economy if you run around 4000-4500 RPM instead of WOT, particularly on a pontoon. A lot of extra power just gets you a moderate gain in speed. You are right about the weight tho. My old 3 cyl 2 smoke was a 70-90 hp class motor and it weighs the same as my 60-70. I do use about half the gas I did with the 75 for the same cruise speed. |

If they use their boats enough to keep the gas moving, they will be OK, just don't park it all winter with a full tank of gas and gas in the carbs. Dump the extra gas in your truck or something, drain the bowls after you fog the motor and blow out the fuel lines. It will start right up in the spring and then get out more ;-) |

Most runabouts have access ports to the in-line surge valve etc, but this one doesn’t have access to anything. We tore the old plywood floor out because it was spongey and while ate it I replaced the old (1977) fuel line with the best stuff Napa could supply. Then we glued it all up with fresh wood and it’s solid. I might get it back in shape one of these years. Lol! |
