    Suggestions on how to fill my onboard gas tank?

    Use a 2-gallon tank. Mix that and prime the fuel system. This allows you to fire it up before the splash. Then add oil for the remainder of the tank capacity, and top off the tank at your local gas station. Then as you drive down the rough pot-hole infested roads....the rest will mix

    Suggestions on how to fill my onboard gas tank?

    I would premix in a few smaller cans and get them in. Then add oil and pull to the station. The act of filling and driving will mix the rest

    Until the wet and rotting wood completely dissolves and is eaten by insects, there will not be a hollow sound. Tapping with a hammer doesnt mean anything If it's wet, time to repair
