You don't need that stuff. Its colder than that here now in NJ. We have ethanol in our pump gas as an oxygenate for emmissions reasons. To minimize effect on jetting, I mix race gas(no ethanol) 50/50 when its cold out like late fall early spring. Another bad thing is that ethanol absorbs water, and can cause some oils to separate from the fuel. I have seen this first hand. You have to live with whats in the fuel from the refinery but certainly don't add more.

Also don't pay too much attention to spooge. Its related to the oil flash point and fuel additives as well as mixture. My bike spooged plenty but ran like an animal.

Is it just temp related or snow related? Vent lines blocked with snow?
