> Guys
>  A question for the chemist out there.I have been using fuel from a
aluminum fuel box that holds tools also.Have had considerable engine
problems. Now I found it. The fuel box is contaminating the fuel./ The fuel
is Mach 7 30% heli and is a bright cool aid orange when poored in the box. I
dumped it the other day and it is a deep dirty purple.As the box would get
empty I would refill,so I was continously changing the % of good and bad
fuel.Therefore the inconsistant engine runs.I use about 15 cases of fuel a
year,so I would not have thought I would need to clean the tank.

trouble.
