 on with the sale and service of Mikuni PHH carburetor parts.<br>&gt;<br>&g=
t; The transaction occurred late last Fall. We have finally sorted thru the=
 inventory to the point where we now have a good record of the parts we hav=
e on hand and we are just starting to offer carburetor service work.<br>&gt=
;<br>&gt; As for your run problems, there is definitely a blockage that is =
not letting enough fuel thru to keep the car running without the choke. Wit=
h today's fuel, the problem comes from the ethanol. Even a few months sitti=
ng allows it to raise havoc with fuel systems especially carburetors. Any s=
easonal use gasoline engine should be using a fuel stabilizer.<br>&gt;<br>&=
gt; One of our local motorcycle dealers has been an advocate for Star Tron =
fuel stabilizer. It supposedly contains an enzyme that eats the ethanol. Th=
ey swear by it for motorcycles. The service manager told me they he had a c=
ustomer with run problems after winter storage of his EFI Honda motorcycle.=
 After 2-3 fill-ups with the Star Tron additive in the gas it cleared up hi=
s run problems without any other service being needed.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; Give=
 that a try and see if it helps.<br>&gt; And if you want to get into the ca=
rbs, we have complete rebuild kits in stock for late model PHH Mikuni carbs=
 as well as some parts for the earlier carbs. If we can be of any service t=
o you please feel free to contact us.<br>&gt;<br>&gt; Dave Patten, Owner<br=

r>&gt;<br>&gt; Any suggestions on what would<br>&gt; cause a Solex (late st=
yle with only a couple thousand miles<br>&gt; on them) to run fine on full =
choke, but be unable to stay<br>&gt; running with the choke off?? I figure =
something may be<br>&gt; blocked.? For reasons beyond my control the car<br=
>&gt; received almost no use for a couple years.? When<br>&gt; started occa=
sionally it ran fine until this month. ? I<br>&gt; siphoned out the old fue=
l and refilled with new gas plus<br>&gt; some dry gas to be sure. I blew ou=
t the fuel line, replaced<br>&gt; the fuel filter, and removed the carbs an=
d cleaned the jets,<br>&gt; etc.? The one thing I didn???t remove is the fl=
oat<br>&gt; bowl cover because it was stuck and I didn???t want to<br>&gt; =
ruin the gaskets unless I had replacements in hand.The engine has only a fe=
w<br>&gt; thousand miles on a complete rebuild.? Any suggestions will be<br=
>&gt; greatly appreciated.Thanks / Dan???68 Solex<br>&gt; 2000<br>&gt; ----=
