I put stabilizer in it. I was thinking of try it in the Beast. But if it comes down to it I see a big desert bonfire in the future :flamed

A little to far to take it to Cali

Looks interesting, Thanks Shueman :good

I did treat the fuel last year and maybe this stuff will help also. Its a low compression motor so that might help also. :stupid

About a month ago I bought a gallon of that PRI-G and put some in an old 5 gallon army can I've had sitting for well over 3 years. Ran the gas through my generator, not even a hiccup.

Been using a couple of ounces in my van every other fill-up. Increased my mileage according to my math. :good

Pretty much all thats left is prime the motor, stab the dizzy, plugs, timing , fuel, and fire it up and break in the cam :good

This blue biatch is far from a racer, its a cruiser

Especially with gas prices where they are :eek
