Though I don't have experience with it, charter captains at Lake O have also cautioned me about storing a partial tank. Apparently alcohol is a conductor and the old gas we had without ethanol wasn't. The alcohol can cause galvanic corrosion where it meets the air thus deteriorating a tank. No experience with it but they claim it happens. Anyway, one thing I do do no matter if its a two stroke or a 4 stroke is fog all my engines pull my plugs a blast each cylinder after fogging. I never skip that.

On an off topic, Belmont, for chain case oil in the snowmobile, do you use a gear lube? I see many guys use 75w 90 rather than what the stuff at the dealer.
