I have a friend who owns an Ace Hardware store recommend this stuff to me. He lives in a different community so I don't buy from him, but he still said it is a good product. I got some locally and am trying it this winter on my ATV's and high wheel string trimmer to see it it makes any difference. Very hard to do controlled tests on things like this and "it worked for me" or "it didn't work for me" is not the best way to know. Things like Sea Foam, and Stabil have long time track records. I don't know about this product.

Here is the website of Gold Eagle, the manufacturers of Sta-Bil.

There's also a "411 on Ethanol" page.

Reading the conclusion page of the Practical Sailor article/review is very improtant, especially in their reference to the results of storing a vehicle with an empty or half empty tanks. In spite of the gas prices, a full tank is a happy GMC. Obviously most know this, but some may not.
