Hi folks. I've just a aquired an 89 R100 gs which needs a bit of light fettling to get back on the road as it's been stood a while. I've had issues with the ethanol in modern fuel knackering carbs and rubber bits on some older machinery so wondered what the consensus is with airheads. I'm a long way away from a vendor of Super or R98 so wondered if anyone used a fuel stabiliser and if so which one?
Also, what's the consensus on coating the inside of the tank to prevent corrosion? I'm guessing it should be less of an issue if you use a stabiliser but is Phosphoric acid still the best option for a tank clean?
