The meth should not matter, puter will compensate, to find leak, get some flammable carb spray and spray around manifold, if idle changes, you found the leak.

I'm also experiencing the same prob. Seams to be linked to the fuel pump in my front tank. Just ordered new tank /sender/pump. Hopefully have it in this week. (Light only comes on when i run it on that tank...)
