Does anyone know the name and phone number of the fuel stabilizer that was recommended in the article in the Nov/Dec issue last year.; somehow my copy has disappeared ( a senior moment, I’m sure) Regards, Roy Templet

Roy, It was Briggs & Stratton fuel stabilizer. The number listed was for Fifth Avenue Antique Auto Parts - 785-632-3450. It is available from many sources, including Amazon. Ken

Got a Marine Boat Store close by? Go in and ask for Yamaha Yamalube Fuel Stablizet. Millions of boaters can't be wrong and there are a lot of boats that cost way more than our Early V-8s. I got a quart from a Yamaha rep several years ago and have been using it since. No water in fuel, no hard starts in the spring. Costs more than other stablizers, but for me it is the one that has been working for me for over 10 years. (1949 Ford, 1973 Ford Ranchero, 1985 Thunderbird)

Are you using the Yamalube with ethanol gas?

It does not make a difference -- although when non-ox is available -- that is the number 1 choice. I do store my vehicles with non-ox.

non-oxgenated fuel is gasoline without enthanol. Most places it will be the expensive premium gas. At least here in the midwest. there even is a web site for checking out where it is https://www.pure-gas.org/ I always print out the list for the states I travel through when taking the old Ford.

One of the most sold "stabilizers" in our area is StaBil. Any fuel containing alcohol will "phase separate" over time. This means any moisture in the gas will produce a layer of moisture that lies on the bottom of the tank, and will sucked into the system causing problems. Since draining the tank isn't usually possible, the next best practice is to keep the tank full to prevent condensation with non-alcohol fuel, and add a stabilizer according to the recommendations on the container.
