    me... I store the boat on a full tank with 2+4 additive and run the boat for 30 minutes at idle to circulate de 2+4.. then I winterize
    the 75 ETEC

    In the Spring I dump all the gas in a couple of 5 gallon tanks and refill with fresh fuel in the boat.

    the old... gas runs tractor, mower, weed eaters, chain saws all summer long ...and a couple of kickers for trolling

    no problems yet
