What a remarkable day for mid-November, I’m being over taken by some unknown force; it’s time to take that last drive. 

 I’m won’t be surprised if I see some other oldies out today, it's just to nice not to.

 With the temp skyrocketing much higher than predicted, I've seen many motorcycles on the road too.

You have fun on that drive. I should run the Camaro around the block one more time since it has an automatic that I can drive one armed.

I'm topping off the tank on the Chevelle again this afternoon with non-oxy since I burned half a tank last weekend! 

Should probably put the Stabil in too since this will probably be it.  Going to change the oil since I put over 3000 miles this season!

I also put up some Christmas lights today since it's over 60 degrees hoping that will hold off the white stuff since they are up early this year!  Lol

I took the camaro out and drove it into town to top off the tank and put in stabil. Then washed it and stuck it back in the shed. Man I missed driving it this year. It will be back for sure next year.

 Nope I bought a bigger one and it is sitting on my tool box waiting to go on. But since I have this other unit I am not worried about damaging the rotors in the one that is on it.

Does Sta-bil really work ? I use it and have not had issues. Exhaust smells funny with it in. How does Sta-bil compare to Seafoam ? Is one better then the other. Just curious

I used Sta-bil for several years until I was told it wasn't good for 2 cycle engines. I then switched to Sea-Foam and just use that in everything. I haven't had any fuel issues with that either.

The guy who does small engine work that I use only uses Sea Foam now. He said the Sta Bil does not stay mxed with the fuel leaving a deposit in the carbs.

I've never had any issues with Stabil.  Like Jim said, the exhaust has an odor to it, but that's it.  It's only in the tank for about 5 months too.

Seen lots of bikes out yesterday. Plus, I worked in the shop with only a T-shirt on. Cant complain about that in November.
