Have you ever herd of dieseling? Well its the same thing. you are not letting the engine cool down for 2 min or longer..... sometimes i know that it is a pain to let it idel for a min or 2 as yesterday i went to someones house and the guy was tring to talk to me... well he was still there as i let it sit for a couple of mins and let it cool. a good practice of this is to shut the fuel off at the bowl and let it idel till it kills at low idle. it takes about a min for the line to run empty plus there is no fuel left to fire on its self. make sure the timimg is not to far advanced and turn off the gas let her run dry and cool off. also i run 90 octaine gas from shell. That is just what the gas guy brings for "farm" fuel. when i run my diesels i only use amoco primer diesel no 2 summer and blend winter. if i still have alot of summer diesel left i will add some kero to it be careful not to add too much though.... some use gas i"m not a big fan of gas in diesel unless it is for starting a fire then i mix it 60/40 as then there is no nasty "flash" to burn your a$$. higher octaine fuel has a higher flash point so that could help also. but they are desinged to run on low octain gas back in the old days. just let her sit and take a moment to think about your next vaccation or somthing else it it only need a couple of mins.
