I did what I tell everyone not to do when I left the BFL 2 weeks ago. I had run my tank down to empty and being low on cash didn't refill it before parking it. I had INTENDED to fill it within a day or two, but never got around to it. Then I didn't get to fish last weekend so my boat sat with an empty gas tank for 2 weeks. And even in summer, we had a few cooler nights and I got some condensation in there. I had also had some ring free, then filled the tank yesterday and went to lake to fire her up. Well it did, for about 30 seconds, then smoked like crazy and stalled.
Never could get it running again. I changed my plugs (after realizing I left my plug socket at home and had to run back and get it!) but the plugs were old ones that I had just cleaned and put in the boat as spares. So I never could get it running again.
Tonight I have to put NEW plugs in it, purge the line, add, some dry gas and try to fire her up.
So DON'T leave it empty, even in summer!!!:angry:
