Humor for a bit

Also modern 2 cycle equipment needs his high octane gas because of the temperature they run at. A good synthetic oil to mix with the gas is cheap insurance too. The Stihl synthetic is one of the best.

Where do you find ethanol free premium gas? The only ethanol free gas I can find is called "Race fuel." The price per gallon is crazy.

It is possible to break the blend and remove the ethanol from gas, just mix water with the gas and the ethanol will separate from the gas to mix with the water. It works because ethanol will mix with either gas or water but it will only mix with one at a time and it prefers water. Only problem is you wind up with a bunch of ethanol contaminated water to get rid of.

More detailed info on the process is out there for anyone interested, just ask Google.

Boy howdy...an entire set of golden screwdrivers, do they come with a certificate that says I’m qualified to perform radio adjustments? Haha.

Here's your trophy!

I gots to have that, where do I submit my application for competition to acquire such a fine trophy?

On a serious note, I use these things cause my old Pro’s Kit driver broke and now they don’t make it anymore, looked like a pen kinda with changeable tips. And these things in the pic, suck. The driver section will just spin if the coil is tight or slightly stuck, very disappointed with them. What do y’all use that is better, that’s ceramic that is...?

Damn, I replied after page 1 and didn’t see page 2, this has turned to a discussion about gasoline for 2 cycle products, hahaha.

So...in my 2010 Cub Cadet with a 27hp dual cylinder Kohler I just about have to run racing gas cause it’s so damn hard to crank after it’s sat for a week. In my Maruyama trimmer, I run premium gas with their brand of 2 cycle oil, have from day one.

Hmm, just realized that’s all the equipment I have. Disregard this post, I’m sticking to the ceramic driver and golden screwdriver topic.

Where did you get those? I have been looking for a set. Maybe a drop of super glue would help them?
 
Andy, the wind just started blowing and already the power is flickering on and off. I swear, Duke Energy...no I’ll hush.

Shadetree, I ordered them directly from Pro’s Kit. Just Google them and go to their website. I tried the superglue already, didn’t work.

Hahahahaha @Tallman
