Bad Boy Magnum issues

Have you tried clear gas twgoats?

No, I would like to, in all my small engines, but I haven't found place around here that sells it.

It may be something to try if you can get your hands on it. Or possibly fuel from a different station, different blend etc. There has been some scuttlebutt on vapor locking or fuel boiling due to the alcohol content causing stalls and stumbles and such.

I have tried gas from different station/brands and the issue continues. With the difference in flashpoints of over 110 degrees, I do see a possibility of vapor lock. I also have a friend, who while a bit of a conspiracy theorist, makes a case for the fact that since alcohol can displace/absorb up to its weight in water that E-10 gas (can?) contains 10% water coming from the pump.
