nasty gas

[juanbenae]

not what you may have been thinking, but in my new scooter.






got this from a buddy thats had it sitting for about 10 years and i need to go through the fuel system and carb. the tank is empty from evaporation but smells of bad gas and dont suspect i wanna just add new gas to it. the intergrated tank makes it impossible removed and have soaked clean. so how can i get the funky gas scurge out? what can i add with some gas and then drain with the cock (hehehe, i said cock) in the reserve position to get the most clean of the tank again. i was thinking stabil fuel. or whats that other stuff that is suppose to be the berries in fuel system cleanin?

i am planning on pulling the carb and disassembling to see if it can stand a soak and clean or will need a rebuild. some new tires, seat fixins, battery charge (it was new from a snowmobil a year back) , oil change, the plate from my KTM and i gots a new commuter.

aint she a peach?

If it were mine, I would simply remove the float bowl and if it looked relatively free of gunk, I would then dump some gas in the tank, check for flow at the petcock, check for flow at the carb loosen the drain screw on the bottom of the float bowl, then fire it up.

Of course if the float bowl is full of shiit, It would be wise to take the carb out and spray some carb cleaner thru it to be sure the jets are not gooped up.
