I know that several here on the list are 'stuck' with ethanol fuels. What has been your experience while using it in the KLR. Mine as been vapor lock at temps above 90/95F at altitudes above 2000MSL. We spoke of the problems of vapor lock at these higher temps as well as his concerns about the other corrosive features/properties of ethanol. Those were his concerns, not mine; at least not yet. He began is describe what is being talked about at some [BMW] MC clinics and other related problems at local car dealers IRT those mechanics describing the difficulties their communities are having with long term ethanol usage. He asked me if I had heard or used this fuel stabilizing product: http://mystarbrite.com/startron/ (disclaimer: I have no commercial interest, just curious) He was a career airline mechanic, general aviation mech and life time small engine mech with a small fleet of motorcycles and other IC engines. He has given up on STABIL that numerous 'long-term' storage problems exist with this problem (maybe they are not following the instructions; shrug), and no longer uses SEAFOAM after finding this product, because [he says] SEAFOAM also contains alcohol (yet of a different formula). He says this product is the best he has found...IRT to ethanol/long term fuel storage etc. and is being widely touted in his community as the next 'best-thing'. He is now treating all fuel tanks that has any storage-time with Star-Tron stabilizer--last winter being the first winter of 'conversion' from SEAFOAM. In conversation, I described 'list-wisdom' as STABIL was a 6-month product, and SEAFOAM as a 1 year treatment product; neither is needed if you just change the gas often. Before owning a KLR, I never needed STABIL. After discovering SEAFOAM, I never needed STABIL. Might be I won't need SEAFOAM much longer. Any body here have any experience with this product? What say you? revmaaatin. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
