[TR] Fwd: problem gas?

[tom white]

I don't normally read the list now since I need all the time I can get for
personal care and life support activities.

However, in this case I would make a suggestion.  Find you local fuel depot.
this is a place that store and sell several high octane products for sale to
the trucking
business but it is not a truck stop.

Save up enough money to purchase a 55 gallon drum of110 octane racing fuel.  I
believe that 55 gals is the maximum amount you can legally store in your
garage.  Get a hand crank pump that fits the bung hole of the 55 gallon fuel
drum.

Now get premium gas for your TR the next time it needs filling.  Only fill the
tank to the 3/4 full mark on your fuel gauge.  Then in the garage top off the
tank with the 110 octane racing fuel.

If you plan not to start the engine of the TR for several months put the
recommended amount of "Sta-Bill" fuel stabilizer in the gas tank.

When you start the engine of the TR again, months from now, shake the car to
mix the gas in the tank and make sure the battery has a full charge before
starting the engine.  Then make sure the car is getting fuel in the carburetor
before you attempt to start the engine.

If the engine gives you any hesitation when you attempt to start the engine
spray ether based starting fluid through the carburetors immediately before
your next attempt.  If on your next attempt to start thew engine the TR does
not fire up immediately contact me and I will tow it off for you and put it
out of it's misery.

Best regards,
Tom
