    I LIKE STA-BIL MYSELF. I USE IT IN THE BOAT, LAWN MOWER, WEED EATER, CHAINSAW, AND GENERATOR. WELL YOU GET THE IDEA. I LIVE IN SPRINGFIELD, MO AND OUR CITY OWNED POWER COMPANY IS RUN AS BAD AS OUR CITY GOVERNMENT! TAKES FOUR OF THEM TO CHANGE A LIGHT BULB! SO DUE TO REPEATED POWER OUTAGES IN THE WINTER, I KEEP A GENERATOR, AND 20 TO 30 GALLONS OF GAS AROUND. I USE THE GAS UP THAT I DON'T USE IN THE WINTER IN THE LAWN MOWER. NEVER HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS AS LONG AS I KEEP STA-BIL IN IT.

    ANY YOU CAN GET IT AT ANY WALLY WORLD!

    Saw a demo on TV yesterday addressing water in the gas. I believe the product is called Century and actually encapsulates each water molecule with a burnable coating. Removes 100% of the water and doesn't separate like petroleum based products do. I liked what I saw.

    Default ethanol search

    Do a search on this site for "ethanol" and you will pull up a ton of threads/posts that some of us have been having on this very issue. Links to some sites that have some really good info/advice on the subject. Fuel Testers for one, which is an unbiased/unafilliated site.

    Another vote for seafoam. I've been using it for 4 years in boat, lawnmower,weedeater, car.
    Everything starts and runs great.

    Here's another vote for seafoam. I use it in everything. I don't use a lot of gas, 5 gallons will last me a month, so I want to be sure it is stabilized and the engine kept clean.

    I am a member of a couple outboard repair forums and I have never read a bad report about Sea Foam. You can de-carb your motor with it, keep carbon from building up again plus its a stabalizer like sta-bil. Like others have said I use it in all my motors.
