[QUOTE="cdmccul, post: 123172, member: 9318"] Blowing a few puffs of air backwards can be helpful, yes. Many times, the "heat" additives are just alcohol... Which actually can cause the same problems you're trying to fix by not running ethanol fuel. Gas line antifreeze (and ethanol) are only effective 1) in closed emission fuel systems, and 2) when completely consumed and burned in that one sitting and then refilled with good clean fuel. Letting ethanol or alcohol fuels sit with the ability to exchange fresh (moisture laden) air with the atmosphere. [/QUOTE]
