Todd Walrich was a great friend of mine. Todd and I raced together for year=
s and shared a very similar philosophy on both business and life.=20
With Todd's passing and the blessing of his wife Suzie FutoFab acquired the=
business assets of Wolf Creek Racing and is carrying on with the sale and =
service of Mikuni PHH carburetor parts.=20
The transaction occurred late last Fall. We have finally sorted thru the in=
ventory to the point where we now have a good record of the parts we have o=
n hand and we are just starting to offer carburetor service work.=20
As for your run problems, there is definitely a blockage that is not lettin=
g enough fuel thru to keep the car running without the choke. With today's =
fuel, the problem comes from the ethanol. Even a few months sitting allows =
it to raise havoc with fuel systems especially carburetors. Any seasonal us=
e gasoline engine should be using a fuel stabilizer.=20
One of our local motorcycle dealers has been an advocate for Star Tron fuel=
stabilizer. It supposedly contains an enzyme that eats the ethanol. They s=
wear by it for motorcycles. The service manager told me they he had a custo=
mer with run problems after winter storage of his EFI Honda motorcycle. Aft=
er 2-3 fill-ups with the Star Tron additive in the gas it cleared up his ru=
n problems without any other service being needed.=20
Give that a try and see if it helps.=20
And if you want to get into the carbs, we have complete rebuild kits in sto=
ck for late model PHH Mikuni carbs as well as some parts for the earlier ca=
rbs. If we can be of any service to you please feel free to contact us.=20
