Ready for the power cuts. (1 Viewer)

[Clivefog]

Just filled the refillable LPG bottle, checked leisure batteries are charged and they are, I'm all ready for the media led power cuts should they ever happen.

I'd like to say I survived the last ones in the 70's, however we lived in the same grid as a hospital then so never had one.

Early prep for next trip in February so effort not wasted.

Attempted starting up the petrol generator last week then spent several hours fixing it.
Obviously forgot the fuel additive last time.

All the stuff required in the motorhome. Solar panels if that's not enough a trip away for a while warm duvet and hot drink. Bring it on

Since they put more ethanol in petrol, I've had to strip a few carbs for neighbour's on their mowers etc, it forms jelly like spheres in the carb bowl and blocks the jets and the stuff left in the tank seems to go a bit darker colour ?
There's a YouTube mower guy in America who did an 18 month test on 10 different fuel additives and a straight petrol control, the conclusion was that none of them were any better than the straight gas ?
The local chainsaw shop sells ethanol free fuel (at a premium !) but luckily (I think) we get through it too quickly for it to go off ?
