Hi All

I have been riding in the OVSC and SOS area all my 28 years and I really love it.

Most of this time I have been getting fuel from the market in the pines. However 2 weeks ago me and 3 other sleds got fuel from them and all of our sleds started running really crappy. :nea:

A search of the fuel showed water in all of our tanks!

I am told that it is normal to find some water in the gas tanks of sleds and have never heard that before.

Anyone know if this is true and has anyone else had any issues with the gas from market in the pines?

If all 3 developed water issues at the same time...then it was the gas from there. Let them know so they can fix it and others don't get dosed, and buy from the other places.
