not sure what it is, but I have seen the white powder before. It was in a 1977 swather motor. I used ethanol because that's all we got. only took 1 fill and that carb was full of it. I rinsed and changed filters and cleaned for 2 years. And then it stopped. I don't know why but I assume it had something to do with the new gas cleaning years of film off the inside of the tank. There was actually a cup full of powder in the tank the first time I took the tank off to clean it out. I was suspicious someone might have put limestone powder in it, but could not understand why they would. I have NO problems with garden tractor ,lawn mower chainsaw, etc. My lawn mower is under snow every year and it still starts up in spring and away we go. No additives in the gas. Just park and wait for spring. It is a 2012 cub cadet. still same battery even. So I don't by the ethanol myth.
