Great! These 90-100 percent humididity days plays havoc with my small engine machines... Every time I got to cut grass the riding mower starts and start sputtering soon after. That's water in the gas tank. It's so bad lately I just take the hose off the carb and drain some in a glass. The water sinks to the bottom of the glass and I pour the gas back in the tank but leave out the water. This week I took a used shopping bag and placed it over the opened gas tank hole, Stuck 3 fingers down in it to make a little cup in there then screwed the gas cap back on over the plastic hanging out from the filler hole. This morning
I removed the cap and dumped the water that collected in my "cup."
The plastic has to be removed during use so the fuel will flow. I'm on the yard again!
