[QUOTE="squiggles, post: 149332, member: 4469"] Great tip Vibrac. Thanks I've just looked at Aspen website:- [B]The advantages:[/B] [LIST] [*]No expensive repair bills caused by stale fuel [*]Your machine always starts and is ready to go, even after long standstill periods [*]Lasts for years without deterioration [*]Aspen does not contain ethanol [*]Virtually odourless [*]Less maintenance and a longer machine life [/LIST] [B][U]Practical tips when switching to Aspen for storage:[/U][/B] [LIST] [*]Before changing fuel you should run the fuel tank as low as possible on the last use. [*]Once filled with Aspen fuel continue to use or run the machine for long enough to ensure it has worked through the fuel system. Doing this will eradicate [URL='https://aspenfuel.co.uk/ethanol/']stale fuel issues[/URL] and the machine can be stored away for long periods of time. [*]After the first few hours from the fuel switch, visually inspect the machine for any fuel leaks. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
