Use Stabil !!
With all the ethanol in gas now, the older machines do not run as well. I am using marine Stabil...the purple color, not the red, in every machine I own....lawnmower, snowblower, outboards, chain saw, weed whackers, leaf blowers, etc. The purple Stabil has more corrosion fighting additives vs. the pink. It costs about $20-25 for a quart that will treat up to 320 gallons of gas. I put it in the portable gas cans before I go to the gas stations, so I always know any gas I have has the Stabil already in it. In my opinion, you cannot do anything better. Helps clean the system continuously as well. At a cost of $.06-.08 cents per gallon, it pays in the long run by saving repairs caused by ethanol. Small engine shops recommend it.....
