Remember, Every 4-6 weeks of non-use, START YOUR ENGINES. Even if you cant take it for a ride because of the snow depth, you can start up that motor and let it idle for 10-15 minutes. You need to use up the gas that is stuck in the carb and lines before it turns into varnish, allways keep the tank FULL , 1 oz. of gas will turn to varnish in as little as 2 weeks, 1 gallon of gas will take 4 months.

It's all Scotts fault. He had to go and remind us to run the machines. Now I had better do it or come up with one heck of an excuse if I don't.

Nice try but no cigar. Guess I'll just do it. I need to run mine too. How ironic - I was just looking at them in the garage this morning and thought about pulling them outside. Now I'm anxious.

Brent, I am not the badass he makes me out to be. Isn't it funny I can say ass, but I can't say pregnant dog (bi.ch)?

Badwes here?? thanks Scott!! I'm glad U brought that up?? I will have Esther start my bikes the first chance she gets?? I don't want my gas to go bad?? Let me tell you about Esthers car?? No don't let me tell you about how old the gas is in her car?? I don't want you to get ill!! I know that most people don't know how bad is to let gas get years old?? If it smells bad it is bad?? One should drain the old gas out & put in new gas before you start the engine?? The varnish in the carb it is not that easy to get out ?? One should not let the gas in the carb get that old?? A lot easyer two run it from time to time ?? I hope she can get to my bikes someBW??

Uncle is right. I don't start my '79 Z28 often enough. The last time was September or October. I wonder why he wants me to start his bikes for him. I bet they will be a pregnant dog to start.
