It will do no harm running half a bottle of fuel cleaner into the fuel tank next fill-up.Then a couple of caps full when you feel like it.Ethanol in the modern fuels seems to gum-up fuel lines and carbs in some cases and this helps keep them all clear.

I normally use Redex but also the cheap Twin pack Carlube stuff from ASDA does a decent job as well.It also stops the fuel going stale.

Also balancing your Carbs is not a hard job on the SV but here's your self XMAS present suggestion and what I've used for well over 10 years,

Absolute doddle to use and comes with everything you need.So well made it will most likely last a life-time,well at least mine<grin>

If anyone's interested Robinson's have the original new Suzuki plug cap in stock on sale for £8.20 (plus a couple of quid for the seals) instead of the usual £30. Mine just arrived today, seems a bit of a bargain!

Good price but check the Resistance.They should be 5k ohms
