Synthetics in our fuels burn off at lower tempatures then castor oil.
Tipping the fuel out of the tank dosent burn off the fuel still left in the engine. You MUST detsach the fuel line and then hit the engine up on te box with ignitor on to burn off all fuel in the engine. If you leave it in there it will rust your engine.
