I store my cubs in a heated space during the winter months with a trickle charger connected to the battery. Occasionally, when it warms up now and again throughout the winter, I start them up and sometimes go for a little ride on each of them.
When I restored the cubs, I installed fuel shut-off valves in the fuel line. I used to close the valve, run the gas out and then ventilate the garage. Back then I never started them up until spring.
Maybe I'm getting lazy, but now, I just park them in the garage take them out and enjoy a little ride now and again in good weather. I use non-ethanol fuel, ALWAYS!
Question: So, if gas is sitting in the carburetor bowl for a month or two between rides, will it gum up the works? Or, should I run the gas out in the fall and let them just sit. What do you think is the best course of action?
