Morrisons fuel.
 

anyone else have any problems with their unleaded in the bike?

mine has been fine lately, been using BP and i filled up last night at morrisons and bike is running like a bag of the proverbial.

just wondered if anyone else has had this issue.

Never used morrisons but I seem to remember a few years back that one of the supermarkets caused some problems for motorists by using a lower octane fuel than stated or something to do with additives that caused engine problems. I tend to stay away and just fill up with bp or shell and use premium unleaded. Could be just a one off though.

The above was Tesco I think, I've recently started using mozzas exclusively without issue

What bike you got?

Didn't it only affect Peugeots?

on my SV650.

i have just had the air filter out and ran some carb cleaner through it, ran fine at first, then died.
turned off ignition and looked under that black spongey thing on the left of the airbox, and was clogged up with what can only be described as cottage cheese/puss looking stuff. have no idea where this little hole goes to. hazarding a guess at a breather pipe but no idea what for.

help? =[

Just give it a clean out, I think you can wash it and dry it or use petrol?

That sounds like water in your oil Tom, or am I reading this wrong?
