I have 10 Victa 2 strokes that work at the moment. Just want to know tips to keep them that way without decay setting in internally.
For example one PT accrued some water droplets in the tank despite being under cover, albeit sometimes hit with rain during windy weather but only some droplets, not sustained splashing.
Lucky I decided to check and give it a metholated spirits shake before turning on the fuel tap.
I now wan't to give them all a regular run to keep the cobwebs at bay. Some don't get a run in more than a year! How long should I let them rev to get them up to temperature before shutting them down and draining the tank by the end of the hose that goes into the carburettor and turning off the fuel tap on the tank before parking it?
What also concerns is the small amount petrol left over in the tank after draining all I can through the fuel line, and being left with oily residue from the petrol evaporating during prolonged storage. Would it be worth removing the tank each time and manually emptying every last drop back our the filler? Any tips/ ideas would be appreciated.
