Stabil in the mix?

[ericm979]

I put stabil in the gas when I get it home. It later gets mixed to make premix or goes into some other gas engine, preferably lawn mower or log splitter. Those are simple carbureted engines without catalytic converters. Two stroke oil may or may not be good for modern FI cars but it's fine in the older carbureted stuff.

Stabilized fuel seems to stay good for longer, in that the engines still start easily. Ethanol has not been a problem for me so I can't say if it's had an effect on that.

I've also not had issues with modern gas E-## whatever. But I just use the mandated pump gas, not the high count stuff sometimes seen in the midwest.

Nor have I but I attribute it to the fact that I'm diligent about either running the engine and tank dry if it's one I don't use often or keeping it full if one I use a lot along with stabilizer.
