I've got a Honda generator. I run it every few weeks to power the weedwacker and a couple times a year my electric tiller. The gas is seldom more than a couple months old. The other day I emptied one of my composters (yes, we can do that in February in Southern California) and dragged the tiller out to work it into the bed. The generator started okay and ran fine, but when I was done I set it down to the Eco mode before shutting it off and it started surging. Eco off, it idles fine though fast (normal). And under load it sounded normal too.
So I suspect a little gumming in the carburetor. Which brings me to the thread title. Is anyone aware of/ a fan of any particular additive I can just run through the tank to dissolve any buildup?
