Chain saw full of stale gas. 20 pulls won't start. 5 second spray of starting fluid into gas tank and sloshed it around. Started on second pull and ran strong. Don't waste money on high priced liquid either. Spray some starting fluid into your gas and keep going.
Stay away from any petrol with ethanol for outdoor power equipment especially if your not using it for long periods. The ethanol degrades rubber fuel lines and seals and can cause thick viscous particle bonds in the fuel that can easily cause blockages in the small components of carburettors. In Australia the top octane rated petrol is 98 use the US equivalent of this it lasts longer when stored and has been found to have very little impurities and very real internal cleaning properties. Side note: not related but if possible always use mineral based oil for 2 strokes preferably premium mineral, and add small amount more then asked by manufacturer specifications (eg if 50:1 ratio is called for put 40:1 ratio ) too much isn’t good and can cause carbon build up in all areas of the 2 stroke engine but small amount extra overall (especially in break-in period) can extend the life of the equipment exponentially 😉
always trust an old guy with a pink floyd shirt. Not only does he have a good taste in music. He is so old he was there to see the first oil well get tapped. xD

Gasoline wasn't used in IC engines until 160 years after oil.
