Re: MMO and/or ATF in fuel

I'm runnin a 6 with Weber 32/36. I've blocked the manifold heat off completely and still get some perk on 60 degree days. Its only on shut down, about 20 minute soak. Restart is always easy though. Marvel, 4oz per 10 gal didn't work yesterday or today. So, next is to pull the carb and check the needle and seat for dirt...but not satisfied that's it since it never loads up on idle no matter how hot...but come back after 20 minutes and watch and hear it burble like an old coffee pot.

I am pretty sure I'll have to make up spacers from phenolic or oak and add a heat shield between the bowl and the logs.

The oil was worth a try though...sure smells nice when ya spill it on yer hands and shoes, minty at first then like good ol 3 in 1 oil!
