The mercury is dropping, the days are getting shorter and winter is on its way. Many people are settling in for cosy evenings by the fire. Your carburettor-equipped car or motorcycle wants to be made winter-ready too. Below you'll read what care it needs to come through the coldest months smoothly.
Keep your fuel fresh and clean
During the winter months fuel can lose its stability, which leads to carburettor trouble. Use a fuel additive to maintain that stability and keep the system clean. It stops the fuel from ageing and leaving residue that can clog the carburettor.
Protect your vehicle against frost and moisture
Moisture can build up in the fuel and the carburettor, which can lead to hard starting and a loss of performance. Use a fuel stabiliser to reduce moisture and protect your vehicle against rust. Also consider a cover for your vehicle to keep frost and snow at bay.
Make sure it gets regular runs
Stay loyal to your vehicle during the winter months. Regular runs help keep the battery charged, and they also stop parts from seizing and wearing. A short ride every so often works wonders for the health of your carburettor.
To wrap up
As winter makes its entrance, it's time to give your carburettor-equipped vehicle the attention it deserves. With these simple tips you're well on your way to braving the cold and enjoying the winter riding experience free of worries. Take matters into your own hands and get ready for a season full of reliable rides.
