Spicer's
Tech
Tip!

Why
Gas
Goes
Bad
in
Sleds!
|
Every
year,
a
number
of
snowmobilers
are
surprised
to
learn
how
quickly
gasoline
deteriorates
in
their
snowmobile.
Either
the
sled
doesn’t
start
after
a
“normal”
period
of
storage,
or
it
won’t
idle
(or
run
properly)
after
coming
out
of
storage,
or
the
sled
doesn’t
start
as
soon
as
it
gets
cold
out.
Here’s
why.
Gasoline
can
stay
fairly
fresh
for
a
while,
if
stored
in
a
sealed,
non-vented
container.
This
is
to
keep
the
gasoline’s
“light
ends”
from
evaporating.
The
light
ends
are
what
allow
the
fuel
to
ignite
easily
at
first
start-up
when
the
engine
is
cold.
A
snowmobile’s
gas
tank
and
fuel
system
is
vented
to
the
atmosphere,
so
it
is
far
from
sealed.
This
fact
means
the
gas
in
your
sled
is
really
only
“good”
for
about
30
days
in
this
type
of
storage
medium,
an
unsealed
container.
Sleds
are
usually
stored
from
Spring
to
late
Fall,
usually
in
warm
and
humid
conditions
and
under
wide
temperature
swings.
This
is
why
a
sled
typically
experiences
some
of
the
worst
fuel-related
problems
in
all
of
motorsports
when
the
fuel
is
left
in
it
for
extended
periods
of
time.
How
does
this
happen?
The
tank
actually
breathes
during
the
wide
temperature
swings.
Light
ends
evaporate
and
saturate
the
air
inside
the
tank.
The
tank
warms,
and
the
air-fuel
vapor
is
pushed
outside
the
tank
through
the
vent.
Then
the
tank
cools,
and
draws
back
in
fresh
air.
The
cycle
repeats
the
next
time
the
fuel
warms
up,
light
ends
evaporate,
saturate
the
air
in
the
tank,
vapor
is
pushed
out
the
vent
as
it
heats,
then
fresh
air
is
drawn
back
in
as
the
tank
and
gas
cools.
Slowly,
the
gas
goes
“flat”.
This
means
that
keeping
the
tank
full
and
reducing
the
temperature
swings
(store
at
a
stable
temperature)
will
minimize
the
loss
of
light
ends.
Minimize,
not
eliminate.
The
other
problem
with
evaporation
of
the
fuel
is
crap
known
as
“soluble
gum”.
When
gas
evaporates,
this
is
the
sticky
goo
left
over
that
plugs
carb
jets.
It
is
formed
by
oxidation
of
certain
hydrocarbons
that
combine
slowly
with
oxygen
in
the
air
and
form
gum.
Fuel
manufacturers
are
required
to
contain
a
deposit-control
additive.
If
the
gasoline
contains
a
lot
of
soluble
gum,
then
the
normal
amount
of
additive
may
not
be
enough
to
clean
away
the
left
over
gum
from
storage.
This
is
why
you
might
need
to
treat
the
first
tank
of
the
year
with
an
extra
dose
of
cleaner
if
a
machine
displays
drivability
problems
after
being
stored.
From
a
reactive
stand-point,
we’ve
found
a
product
called
“Schaefer’s
Neutra”
to
really
do
the
job
when
you
need
to
clean
the
fuel
system.
A
12
ounce
bottle
added
to
10-12
gallons
really
makes
a
difference.
Dissolving
and
removing
the
gum,
varnish
and
internal
residue
is
where
this
product
shines.
It’ll
take
a
lot
of
the
carbon
off
the
power
valves
as
well
and
out
of
the
combustion
chamber,
but
should
be
used
as
an
occasional
cleaner
rather
than
on
an
every-tank
basis.
From
a
proactive
stance
and
as
a
preventative
measure,
placing
a
Fitch
Fuel
Catalyst
into
the
fuel
tank
will
keep
the
fuel
fresher
longer,
continually
“cracking”
the
longer
chain
hydrocarbons
down
into
“light
ends”
so
the
fuel
stays
able
to
easily
ignite
after
periods
of
storage. |
