[pweezy42]

i live in pa my bike has been sittin bot a month in a half what temp will klotz super tecniplate seperate when its mixed wit gas puttin in new harness 2mrw and not sure what 2 do if it has seperated right now its 27 out please clue me in

IDK but id drain it and put new in just to be safe.

Its cheap insurance just to drain it out and put some new stuff in there... guarentee it will take less than 5 minutes. If i have gas with pre mix sitting for over 2 months (i use redline) i usually put it into the weed wacker/lawnmower gas can.

 

Right now gas is still less expensive than a new top end... for now

I live in PA too, Pittsburgh. I have a full tank in 927, and its been sitting for 2 weeks and its definatly already seperated. Im gonna drain it and put in fresh and save the fuel for my weedeaters. But if it was in there and I had no other fuel or a 5 gal tank already mixed Ide just shake the shit out of it untill it bonded back together. Its not going to hurt anything but Klotz and 927 do seperate in colder weather so I shake the bike around after it sits for the night or gets cold again.

so just drain the tank?

Drain that big ass tank of yours.. I usually pull the line at the carb end and into a canister.

And they you hurry up and wait. I filled it up one time and realized i forgot to shake the tank before.

IF I SHAKE THE TANK I CAN LEAVE IT IN THERE AND USE IT OR NO???????and what if i use a space heater next to it for like an hr or 2 would it mix again?????

I think youll be safe just shaking it a bunch. Jeeze. No need for space heaters. Unless theyre really from space

Acording to Klotz's tech sheet it stays in suspension. It doesnt seperate out.

Benol is the oil that seperates out at low temperatures. That is why it says do not use blow 35deg.

does castor 927 seperate?

[jbooker82]

does castor 927 seperate?

 

There web page says that is could seperate if mixed with low specific gravity race fuel or when used at 35 deg. So I would say yea.

927 is a caster oil that is why it seperates out, Just like benol.

 

Supertechiniplate has some benol caster oil in it but it is also 80 percent synthetic oil.

thanks for the info

so i have it put away for the winter so i should prolly drain that out right?

[jbooker82]

I probably would because castor oil gets gummy when left standing. It would be ok in the tank but when the carbs dry up from sitting that is where the gum starts to form.
