[QUOTE="markt, post: 216273, member: 5487"] Starter fluid is not a good idea with a 2 stroke because it will dilute the oil. The chalky powder is from a chemical reaction from the ethonal/ water in the fuel. Ethonal will attract the water from gas and allow i to burn out with the fuel. Once left in a carb over a period of time it will eat away the protective coating on the alluminum causing corrosion on the carb body. It's not a real big deal, you just need to clean it well and use fresh fuel. [/QUOTE]
