    Its not the swap over to alkylate fuel causing the the crud . Its the solvents and ethanol in the pump fuel doing it . It nonly shows up when you switch to alkylate fuel .
  2. Exactly but the torque needed to achieve that unwanted , extra tension will be the same .
  3. I still maintain that the torque is governed by what your torque wrench is set at . If the bolt is lubed then yes it will go in further a tad making it tighter but the torque needed to achieve that will be the same if it is not lubed . It just won't go in quite as far .
  4. I like them . So . Lodsa money .

    Good point about the ethanol . Should be on the side of the pump you use . E5 maybe E10 now or worse . I use Red Line Racing 2t oil mixed with Aspen4 or husky power4 at a ratio of 50:1 .
  11. I have seen it used in the past . A double ended with two 3120s actually . I think there is very little in it power and torque wise .
  12. Hard to tell from pics but on the face of it it doesn't look too bad . I would give it a light hone . I would be more concerned to find out what made it run lean in the first place and fix that or it will happen again .
  13. I was quite shocked at the amount of treatment needed to keep Kate Garroways husband alive . She said his liver and kidneys stopped working properly , his lungs were solid . They had to take blood out of one leg , oxygenate it and put it back in the other leg .
  14. Yea . I prefer those . Plain , dark and old . Bit like me !
  15. Yea , if your not old enough they wont take ya bud ☺️
  16. Think its been on here before as well ...
  17. So could it be possible that other company's product ( Husqvarna " power " Stihl " motomix " and this other " Murphy " one ) could come from the toppish part of the same refinery as the Aspen fuel ?
  18. Does Aspen have its own refinery ?
