This is new territory for me as I haven't had a boat for over 30 years...
I suppose dumping a bottle of Startron in wouldn't hurt...

The ValvTect website says their gas is good for a year. I have a Yamaha outboard and still put their conditioner/stabilizing when I add gas. Probably not necessary but for a few extra bucks it makes me feel better.

I have a Yamaha 150 too...I will add some Startron after the last outing on Columbus Day. Between that and the Valvetect it should be fine til Spring.

Ambrose Cove adds Startron, but I still add Stabil. Never had a problem.
