Re: Blingo heater

Similar issue I have from time to time, I did find the "dry fuel" addition seemed to improve things, as for amounts it all depends on how much fuel is in the tank, I used about 1/6th of the bottle on a full tank. Also having a full tank of fuel helped, anything below 1/2 and it would gener...
