I absolutely agree with bill. Bad thing happen when you let the vehicle
sit for a long period of time. Not to mention moisture accumulating in the
oil and fuel. Your on the right track with what you are doing or planning
to do. But your carb probably needs a rebuild that I don't think fuel
treatment will cure. When the fuel sits in the carb like that, it
evaporates, leaving behind all kinds of deposits that gum up the carb and
all of the gaskets and rubber parts deteoriate. They are designed to be
constantly in fuel, not left to sit and dry rot. I would do what you plan,
take bills suggestion to hear, and last but not least, take it in and have
the carb cleaned and rebuilt either yourself if you know how or at a shop.
After that, its another story......
thanks for the pics bill.....
