In Response To: Re: ethanol & outboards, long reply (Peter)

The only thing I would make a note on, I cleaned my tank last year prior to going in, poked around and the thing was clean, too clean I could see the glass cloth all over the place, white, not dark spots or crud as expected.

Took the last bit of last years fuel out of the tank so I can replace, it was a cruddy brown color with an awful stench.

Tank was clean, fuel was clean last season. Now tank is clean, fuel is crudded up, I vote the tank is giving up something.

Thanks for the time on the research. Boating is just great.
