Hope Someone has a suggestion, My Warrior will only idle while fully choked it sat with fuel since March. Is there a fuel cleaning additive that may resolve the problem?

Thanks

as far as i know there is only an additive to keep the fuel from varnishing, I don't know of any of already varnished fuel. I would drain the gas tank of fuel and take your carb out and clean it, then of course but new fuel! good luck

I'm not aware of any additaves to remove varnish that has already happened. Carb cleaner works well, and the warrior carb is a cake walk as far as a rebuild/cleaning.

There are some carbs that have internal passageways that if clogged with varnish are not salvageable. I do not know if the warrior's carb falls into this group.

Good luck!!!!!!!!
