I find that most any fuel system cleaner,injector cleaner,
Stabilizer ,etc , is usually best described and used as a
maintenance and storage product. This problem is a Big issue on
carbureted motorcycles for that same issue your having and cleaners
never work in the fuel system to Fix a problem. Unless your pilots
are not that bad ,who knows if it will help your problem, so Good
luck ... <br>

Hi ,<br>
Since I am very familiar with these carbs and problems
associated ,the <br>
# 1 Reason for problems on stored cars and motorcycles
with carbs is <br>
dirty Pilot jets and that circuit of the carbs. I have
also seen some <br>
issues with the Mikunies<br>
on some used carbs that had problems in Pilot circuits
that could not be <br>
easily fixed ,or with normal chemical dipping and
cleaning . Somebody <br>
like myself that knows how to rebuild/restore these cars
should know <br>
this info,but many I have known over the years have gone
on or have <br>
passed away without passing on this knowledge .I'm glad
I can still <br>
provide this service to my customers ....<br>

should be using a fuel stabilizer.<br>

Star Tron additive in the gas it cleared up his run
problems without any other service being needed.<br>
