Reply to "Gas Mileage Suby Speedster"

We're lucky here re: ethanol. We live in the southernmost part of the county. It still allows ethanol-free gas, albeit 91 octane. I run this in ALL my lawn equipment and in my Bimmer bike. They ALL get Stabil in the fall. 

The Spyder gets 93 octane Sunoco with the unfortunate ethanol, and also Stabil in the fall.

I've replaced exactly zero carburetors and had exactly zero problems.

Unless you want to count the 24 year-old chainsaw that eventually ate it's lines. I replaced the lines($7 lines, filter, clunk, air filter foam, and a spark plug). I got no joy, then tossed it. It had a LONG and hard life of occasional use and putting it away wet. The replacement is fancy, it has rubber engine mounts, to keep me from shaking I guess.

There is zero chance of me buying a $20 gallon in a can.
