Bad Gas

[BigDaddy]

My Auger has been running awesome this year (it's about 9 years old), until Saturday.

I may have gotten into some bad gas or my mix may be off. Any suggestions?

Where can I dump gas?

I've been dumping oil mixed gas in small qtns. into my autos for 20 years and have yet to get less than 130,000 miles on the trucks plus 6 or so one ways on the Al-Can Hwy. and a couple of times to Florida so I guess I don't worry too much about a very small amount of oil - better than dumping the gas on the ground or in the street. Just my personal experience.

Hennepin Co. operates a Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Center in Brooklyn Park. They accept old gasoline free of charge.

Fouled out spark plug will make em run like crap running most auger at 24-1 plugs don't last that long

I always dump old gas into my truck. As long as you have a full tank or close I don't think it'll matter to the truck.

Is your truck a two-stroke?

Thanks guys!

I'll dump the old gas (in the truck or at Henn Co, depending on amt), run some fresh mix, and replace the plug.
