Re: [2cylinderhondas] Junk in fuel,, car acting strange?? any help

To all Honda 600 owners.
        I have a list and it is available, but because some of these items are purchased one at a time the cost is like an elevator, and it never goes to the lower floors.   So giving a list with prices leads to confusion and lost trust in the product and availability.  I have been working with a shop to make some lenses, 15 months and no lens yet, but the price is good.  I make several rubber items and often tell Honda owners where to purchase them.
        So, e-mail me off line and I will respond.

It1ski;
    You have a common problem known as "Dust Rust" in your fuel tank.  Small pockets of rust are building in your fuel tank and when the pop, dust like particles of rust are released into the fuel tank, passing through the fuel pump, clogging the fuel filter and the needle valve screen in the carb.
    There is a cure, it is called sealing your tank.  Directions are located in the Hirsch Automotive site www.hirschauto.com .   I have used this product on lots of cars and it works great.  So, change your filter clean the lines and carb, seal the tank and go back to driving your Honda.
