* VISUALLY EXPLAINED by Craig Kirkman, a renowned you tube educator of these systems.

If you would rather not drain the fuel in your machine to prevent stale fuel from forming then try using a fuel stabiliser. This will keep your fuel nice and fresh for many months. Here is a good stabiliser from Amazon: https://amzn.to/38yVctx

Thank you so much for viewing this video. I'm very proud to bring it to you. Please let me tell you why I am making these videos!
MY MISSION
My mission is to take subjects that can seem quite daunting and somewhat difficult to understand and explain them in such a way that everyone can understand and benefit. All too often things are explained to us in a way that is difficult to grasp. I really hope that all of my tutorials are understandable by most, if not all, people who wish to view them.
I want to help people understand as I was helped by some fantastic mentors during my years as a University student, in Science, and a trainee apprentice as an engineer. In fact, I could NOT have became a qualified repair engineer, followed by a Science graduate and post graduate, followed by the creation of these videos, if I never had these wonderful people in my life.
Sadly, some of them are no longer with us to see these videos, which I really want to dedicate to them. My very first manager (Mr Nadin), who gave me a chance straight out of school despite me not being the most ideal candidate for the position of engineers apprentices at the time. He believed he could make an engineer of me. So first of all, if it were not for him I wouldn't be here with all of this knowledge today. I will always respect him and remain grateful to him for what he did for me. I'm so pleased I achieved an apprentice of the year award in 1994 to give him back some satisfaction that I was working hard, and that his belief in me paid off.
I also want to dedicate these to my Father, who is still a practising engineer, for always pushing me into this field and ensuring I applied my mind to it. More than anyone else, I want to dedicate these to my amazing late mother, who nurtured, cared, loved and motivated me all of my life. When I was down she would always reach down and stand me back up again, telling me I was worth something. I only wish I could thank her in person and show her these videos. I realise now that she was my biggest and most amazing mentor.
Thank you for 40 Golden years mom. I am always thinking of you!
Finally, I want to give all of my love and gratitude to my incredible wife, the only woman I ever have, and ever will, truly love. She is my Rock! She is the only person who believes in me, and supports me, 100% in all of my endeavours. She believed in me from the moment we met, and saw some potential in me. She provided me with two amazing children, who have added a very challenging but completeness to our lives.
The issues around lack of engine function and Stale fuel is more common than most people think. During my years as a repair engineer I have encountered this issue very often indeed (most days, in fact). Although this subject in somewhat controversial at best, I have found that fuel is at its best for around 6 weeks after purchase. It then starts to go stale and this WILL cause engine starting and running issues eventually. Bog Down is something I have most certainly encountered with engines using stale fuel.
I hope you find it useful and please do check out my other videos on related topics.
Many thanks indeed
