  3. You got a daughter I could marry? Otherwise I'm screwed as I am a Canadian citizen. I wish I could live in California. You should be thankful you do man, as I would give a lot up to do so myself.

    Man I'm glad I live in southern texas....the coldest it gets here is 40 degrees and I'm bundled up with my knees shakin! I have used seafoam though.. In lawnmowers and 4wheelers...pretty good stuff!
     
  5. Yup, your pretty lucky. Texas sounds nice about now. I wouldn't be concerned about putting my car up for the winter. I was going to use Seafoam when I start it up after the winter. I worked at an autoparts store and customers swore by that stuff.

    I'm pulling carbs apart that were brand new when they were parked. They were hooked up to new fuel tanks/pumps/systems. Various products were used as stabilizers. None of the stabilizers prevented the carbs from crudding up. ETHANOL or some other BIG GOVERNMENT MANDATED EPA CRAP must be the culprit. I don't know what they do to "OXYGENATE" the fuel. Maybe we are blamming ethanol and it's something else, but I'm having trouble with anything that sits these days regardless of what stabilizer is used.
