    Fuel Treatment

    What if any fuel treatments / regiments does everyone use ? We fish some smaller lakes and fuel will be in boat for months at a time. We do fish year around , usually twice weekly and more if time permitted. My mercury just doesn’t use much fuel on smaller lakes.

    I run non-ethanol only. I add some Rude carbon guard at every fill-up. During the summer I am filling up about every 1-2 weeks. Over the winter I was filling up every 1-2 months with no issues.

    I use Sta-bil 360 marine and have not had any issues. Ethenol free fuel is not really available in NJ. My motor is a 2006.
