The mogas should not gum up your carbs. Does it contain ethanol?

You are probably aware that pur gas .com (google it and the correct url
will come up) lists some ethanol free gas stations by state.
I have a Kitfox with older foberglass tanks that are not ehhanol resistant
and have been OK using ethanol free auto gas treated with Sea Foam. Some
of the gas sits for several months without obvious problems in terms of
gumming up carbs. ( Phase seperation - Settleout is a different issue)
Ethanol free gas is available at lots of marinas in our part of Florida,
and has been available in Maryland in counties out side of the big city
smog corridor as an aside.
