Could the problem be from using ethanol based gasoline in engines/tanks that have never seen ethanol? It maybe the ethanol is cleaning the tanks better and resulting in more debris and junk getting in the carbs, fuel lines ect. It may be much more noticeable in motors than don't get used a low and have conventional gas sitting in the tanks and carbs longer. Ethanol has been around for 10-15+ years and the manufactures have adapted. Many of the carb cleaners and injector cleaners have some component of alcohol in them.
