I came across this link today and thought some of you may enjoy reading it and learn a few things as I did about gasoline.

Quite interesting actually. Didn't realize that vapor lock could happen so easily when seasons & fuel mixtures change.

Thanks Cas, its off to work for me now though.

I thought it was common practice to drain fuel tanks before storing any kind of engine. I didn't realize that so many folks didn't :S

Apparently so. The whole fill the tank up part to prevent condensation. I know I've read that misinformation on here at some point.
