Title: Adding fuel stabilizer?
Post by: Mike Leary (RIP) on December 28, 2019, 12:55:04 pm
I was sicker than the proverbial dog when we brought the coach down south for a extended stay at the pier and spaced-out adding to a now full tank. Can I just dump it in, or do I need to tear the moorings (inside & outside, big chore!) apart and take the coach out to slosh it around?  :headwall:

That looks like (no first hand experience) like a  gasoline stabilizer???

Adding it to the tank will give you good coverage for fuel in the tank, but not for the fuel in the lines, filters and engine.  Not sure I would start the engine just to circulate it though.

What I'll do is dump into the tank and later on take the coach out for a cruise down to Organ Pipe. Thanks, Brett.  Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument (U.S. National Park Service) (https://www.nps.gov/orpi/index.htm)

Mike, You may as well just go the extra few miles into Ole Mexico and bring back some Kahlua for my coffee.  ^.^d  :))

You don't want to trust me, Jerry. Since I quit drinking, I might have a relapse and kill the jug!  ^.^d
