Sorry this got of the current topic here. Don

Don - interesting question. I don't know. Perhaps some might try it. I have tested the Stabil to no benefit other than transferring dollars from my pocket to that of the seller.

If I were going to try keeping the diaphragm moist, I think I would try either a light machine oil (such as Singer sewing machine oil) or ATF.

Good carburetion is fuelish hot air
The most expensive carburetor is the wrong one you attempt to modify.
