Ethanol Free Gas

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I bought 5 gallons of very expensive ethanol free gas for the 4 hp outboard engine on my sailboat.  In past summers, water problems caused major problems in the engine.  This year there were none.  I now have 2.5 gallons of unused ethanol free gas that I have to deal with.  Do I add stabilizer and use it next summer or do I find a way to use it up?  If I need to use it up, I have no need for it in my snowblower or lawnmower.  What do you think?

	Jim, I'd use it in any gas powered engine. Your car? Otherwise, Stabil it.

	Yup, put it in your car and burn it. If you bought it at the beginning of summer 2019, it will be a full year old by the beginning of summer 2020. Too long for stablizer IMO.

	I take all the non Oxy out at the end of the season and put a fresh tank in the boat and then add Stabile in and I use the old stuff in the car, truck or lawn mower.
