Does anyone know where one can even get any auto fuel that does not have alcohol in it ? I can not find ANY station that has auto without any alcohol in it. John Steel

Static RPM is normal.My carb has no accelerator pump or mixture control. In warm weather I have no problems at all.It did this last winter too, but when spring came I forgot all about it.Anybody have any suggestions? Mine is the only airplane that I've had any experience with so your help is welcomed.Thanks, Randy HoughamGrandpa's ErcoupeNC87384 _________________________________________________________________ Share life as it happens with the new Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com/share.html?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_sharelife_122007
