[QUOTE="bclapham, post: 669013, member: 25565"] hey steve: it sounds daft, but i wonder if there is any methanol in the U4 as a cheap way to get the oxygenates up? the only reason i say this, is that i just changed a MeOH drum at work just now, we use these crappy metal hand pumps and it was covered in corrosion where it sits in the solvent (MeOH is mildly acidic and will also suck water from the air); to rest my mind, i looked at all of the other solvent drums and none were corroded, THF (an ether) and diethyl ether (very similar to MTBE) were fine as were the acetone and hexanes pumps. the only other thing i can think was that the choke usually has a rubber boot on, maybe it wasnt seated properly from the factory and when you washed the bike maybe a tad of water got in there???? Rich: you are starting to scare me!:eek: :silly: did you get that paper on TEL i sent you? i am now having visions of you doing a TEL still in your kitchen; can just see it on the news, a downtown apartment exploded yesterday when a man was distilling petroleum products to sell to the local mx-punks LOL!
