The last two tanks of gas was 100% gas, at least what I paid for. The gas shut off valve had been very hard to turn. Last tank I put some MMO in and then let it run for awhile before closing the valve and letting it run dry. This last weekend drive the shut off valve turned free like new! Also the dripping carb stopped dripping gas at idle! I believe the carb float valve was sticking and needed some cleaning and adjustment but now is working great! Just at the end of this driving season :-(
