Dang that sucks! I've never had bad gas from a pump to be honest. That may have something to do with being a native Michigander though. On another note I just found a pump that sells pure gas for...

Thanks for the DannoXYZ for the suggestions, however I'm not inclined to believe this to be true. A couple of points to make about the bike that I failed to mention in the first post.

Whelp given the time of year the bike is back home in the garage while I'm off at university. For a bit, getting it to start in the morning took about a minute of cranking, which isn't good. Kestrel...
