Slim, Sta-Bil keeps gasoline relative "stable" and prevents break down into bad things that crap up your carburetor and fuel tank. There is an in depth explanation that involves chemistry, but this should suffice for now. I add sta-bil to every tank. Rummy In a message dated 6/16/2008 2:10:33 A.M.

My question is this: If it's ethanol-free then is there any need to use Sta-Bil or anything else as an additive? MJM had a cocktail of additives he used. What was that and why?
