Everytime I let it sit for a few weeks it runs like crap for about the first hour of driving. It stumbles and farts and spits out oil.
Runs so much better when I drive it like twice a week. Then it runs better then my regular car. Smooth and no oil burn... |

It's the gas. Any place that can be exposed to air will let the liquid evaporate and you get this vaseline like sludge and it takes a while for it to be flushed through the engine by fresh gas. Try some sta-bil or something similar?
