On my Honda express I had to go to premix due to tank failure (rust). Getting ready to run the gas line and wanted to see if anyone has used a fuel filter when running premix.I have cleaned majority of the rust our and wanted to make sure no debris gets to the carb.If you have used a fuel filter which one.Thank you for your reply.

Derek do you have a pic on how you ran the full line? Also, you do not have to put any oil in the engine at all if you are going premix.Got a new job and now back to restoring my Expressthank you

Took the tank off and used evaporust to clean the tank. It did a great job!I was rinsing it out and I would fill the oil tank with water and it would end up in the gas tank. Vice versa as well.Is this normal? Do i need a new tank?

found the issue and it was the break cable was not hook in right.Not it turns over and found out one of the floats had a few pin hole in it so a new carb is on order.I took the muffler off to inspect and looks good. Any ideas on how to de carbon the muffler?
