    Lost power for 6 hours today. Found out a power line was down.....99 started laughing and said someone probably ran into a pole with a snow plow!
    .......could be, no?

    Anyway, another 4 1/2 hours moving snow with the plow and shoveled a roof that had close to 5' on it thanks to wind direction.

    Then worked on the snow blower since the gas went bad. You know, I shut the fuel tank right off and ran the engine until it ran out of gas last spring. In prior years, this ahs always worked. I use only "corn free" gas for the small engines also. But......

    That corn substitute in fuel is working out really well for the U.S. right? :headbang:

    I do that as well and it's been successful to this point. I also run some Stabil though before turning the fuel off.

    Sometimes there’s nothing better for stress and a hard day than setting by a fire.

    Actually, it is. CO2 emissions from cellulosic ethanol are almost half those of gasoline. It's a renewable and renewables are making some people very very rich.

    Similar with me. I swear by Briggs & Stratton Fuel Fit. Zero problems also, in both 2-stroke and 4-stroke equipment.

    I don't know why, but the snow blower is the only engine this happens with!

    Splitter has honda engine, lawn mowers, chain saws, roto-tiller all have thrived with this process.

    Yes on the stabil and sea foam additives.

    Weekend didn’t go so well. Friday I became sick again with CHF and the bladder infection came back I went to the ER at our VA Labs done. Too sick to go home. So I spent Christmas in the hospital and am still here and will be until the end of this week. I’ve been poked so many time my arm are a mess. I won’t lie about it. Christmas was a very dark place for me. Hoping for a better new year.
