When a puff of smoke appears out the headers,shut it off. The oily film prevents rust from appearing on the valve faces and seats and the cylinder walls. C-12 is a very dry fuel and it leaves metal surfaces unprotected from humidity in the atmosphere causing rust. I imagine Florida has more than its share of humidity year round.

I'm not sure I trust it. Rusty within a couple days inside an air conditioned building, I may just change fuel.
