""A gas Carb will not work with alcohol""

that's funny, MVVS, Tartan and other ARE selling methanol burning engines that have Waldro's on them, they use Walbro's because they have pumps in them !!

""Why in the world would it""

very simply put, more power !!


here are photos of my Methanol burning 22cc Super Tartan with a Walbro carb and my Methanol burning Super Tartan 44cc twin with a Dellorto gasoline carb,, later Tartan engines all came with Walbro carbs (that I know of),,,


altavillan,, I was not talking about poorly or badly running engines,, what it come's down to is just because a given brand sells a carb on their engine doesn't mean that that carb is the best performing carb for that engine..


for those of you that don't just understand why I called Walbro in the first place it was because I would like to by a Walbro to replace the Dellorto, and I wanted to know more about burning Methanol threw their carbs,,
