Location: NW WI | First determine how many gallons your tank holds. Then take a 5 gal gas can and add the correct amount of Marine Stabil that is appropriate for the size of your boat tank to it.
Fill up the 5 gal can with 2-3 gal of premium no-eth or any no-ethanol fuel you might be able to find. Mix this up real good then dump it into your boat. Then fill your boat tank full with the same no-eth fuel and drive it home to mix it up in the tank.
Put on engine muffs and run the engine for 20 minutes, during which time you should engage your primer circuit a few times if you have one. THis way you will get treated fuel into the primer circuit if it operates using fuel.
Some people also put in some 2S oil into the tank as they say it keeps the fuel pump diaphrams lubricated better during storage. More oil never hurt anybody anyway. |
