Heads-Up on Ethanol

[striper15]

Been doing a lot of research on ethanol and the really bad effects it has on gas. Anyone running an outboard should be very aware of this stuff. Here is a great site and covers everything you need to know: www.fuel-testers.com/marine_boat_ethanol_problems.html

In addition to the steps found at this site, I also installed a fuel/water separator ( www.boatus.com/trailerclub/fuelfilter.asp ) and changed all my fuel lines to grade A1-AEJ1527 hoses ( www.boatus.com/boattech/hose.htm ).

Hope this helps!

Mo, I checked out the list of additives and was very surprised to see Mercury stuff being full of alcohol. Disappointing. But, did note that Stabil Marine additive appears to be good to go. Did not see Yamaha "Ring Free" (is that it??) - I know a lot of folks really like that stuff - did you run across it anywhere in your research? Thanks!
