Greetings, Finally had a chance to clean the carbs today. I found some nasty crap in the float bowl and throughout the carbs.

First, I clean my carbs every fall and have found same green slugg in the float bowl in the past. But today, I found green slim, brown solid chunks and little white balls of various sizes.

I can only assume this is due to ethonal in the fuel???

Kind of scary for those who don't clean their carbs. I did treat the fuel before summerizing and draining the tank. But I didn't drain the float bowls.
Does this build up happen during the riding season, summer evaportation of fuel left in the bowls or both?
