I use Stabil in every tank. The darker mix, not the bright red. Sounds like I may have to try out some Sartron and see how it does....

Last week had the engine running in less tha 5 seconds of cranking.

I am very happy.

I like startrons 1oz treats 16 gal, vs 2.5 for stabil and 1 for seafoam. I am sure it is priced accordingly but it is easier.

Over the winter when I stored the boat I used Stabil, but I use Lucas fuel additive in every tank of fuel.
