Fuel
Issues: All internal carburetor parts offered for sale by
Randakk's Cycle Shakk are approved for use with gasoline. The
materials are long-established to be impervious to gasoline by
the chemical firms which provide the materials. They will also
tolerate a reasonable amount of ethanol in the "gasohol" fuel
which is commonly marketed as gasoline in many markets in the
US (with or without notice at the pump). E10 (10% ethanol) is
an acceptable fuel as well as "seasonal" fuel (15% ethanol)
which is marketed for summer use in some markets. This is the
maximum recommended amount of ethanol in fuel marketed as "gasoline"
for use in carbureted engines. Avoid ethanol altogether if you
can, as ethanol attracts moisture which can lead to internal corrosion
of metals inside the carbs.
Higher
concentrations of ethanol are known to cause disintegration of
rubber components. E85 (85% ethanol)
must absolutely be avoided and not used under any circumstances...even
emergencies. It will ruin the rubber fuel system components
in any vehicle that is not certified as a Flex Fuel
vehicle.
Continuous
use of in-tank fuel cleaners or using in higher concentrations
than recommended is bad and can lead to premature destruction
of internal carb rubber parts. Float bowl gaskets in particular
are prone to shrinkage in the face of fuel additive abuse. The
only cleaner I recommend is the Yamaha product for "on bike"
dirty carb rehab efforts...it's effective and harder to misuse.
Put the Yamaha product in the fuel bowls only...not in the fuel
tank! More here.
