Debris in Carb

it's no different in Ontario. Gas companies proclaim newer mixtures that either 'clean' or 'boost' the system but there's no real difference other than price.

I've been using Star-Tron to fight the effects of ethanol in my 240Z, my motorcycles and even my tractor.

You can find it at Walmart this time of year.

Mike, I just cleaned out my tank and am ready to repaint and reinstall. I had lots of the "soft" black debris in the bottom of my tank -- like little globs of soot -- from degraded rubber. After shaking/rinsing with lots of acetone and Chemtool B12 and STILL not dislodging all the debris, I finally pulled out the pressure washer and blasted out the inside, finishing off with a rinse of acetone and B12. I wish I had done the pressure wash first, as I would have saved a lot of time, effort, and materials.
