Project Farm fuel stabilizer test

[Too many Kubotas]

Since I don't watch You Tube, I have to ask.

How many years did that test cover? I know that StaBil keeps gas from stratifying for at least two years. And while I don't know by how much Star Tron beats that yet, I do know that it really helps with keeping gas fresh(er) and useful.

He did 2 sets. 5 and 2 years if I recall. Honestly, the corrosion test was a hunk of pot metal in a mason jar covered with treated fuel. SO not an exact duplication of anything. The 2 year test he tried to get an FI generator to run on the fuel, and pretty much none did, though the Stabil did eventually run once he got the combustion chamber heated by using start fluid. I pretty much skipped most of that after.

Taryl Fixes All I think is the name of a YT channel that did a much more in depth, more accurate version of runnability on small engines w/ various stabilizers. Here in PF, the corrosion differences were stark, but not much else surprising.

BTW someone pointed out here that if you wish to skip all the ad interruptions of YT, to drop the address into Duckduckgo.

I was thinking two of them started the generator without starting fluid, Stabil being one of them. I’m not going to watch it again to confirm it though.
