Pro and Cons of E85

To prevent your gummed up carb, why don't you shutdown by running the carb dry?


I do that with my motorcycle and lawnmower (only E10) and haven't gummed up since I started do it.......

(added fuel shutoff valve to the lawnmower, motorcycle already has one)


I tried this at first, and always seemed to get a dry chalky substance in the carb. I see that Tony runs his dry, so obviously he doesnt have this issue.

Not sure why it does this with me. I cant remember if I was using the Lucas Stabilizer then or not, and it may not make any difference.
