I usually get my fuel from the same station and switch back to regular gas at the end of the season and Ive never had a problem before. last year I didnt switch back and this is what I found.

The lobe was scratched from when I tossed a rocker last year. I buffed it out and figured it was good to go since it runs on the roller.

DSMINMN, lets just say you were back in school . can you quote me a price on doing the head with all new valves , guides and 2 new seats? I can tale care of the damage to the combustion chamber .
