Good point Tim.
Not a lot of vehicles use high test today. Who knows how fresh it is in the big tanks. Maybe I'll ignore the dealers advice and use Stabil treated low octane.

.....


I’m not saying it’s bad or worthless, but I think that stabil, just keeps the gas from rotting as fast and depositing junk in the fuel system. Don’t know one way or another, but my dad would always mix a bit of 2-cycle or Marvel Mystery oil to his lawnmower gas before he parked it for the winter.


My generator runs for 10 minutes every week, and it uses propane, which
does not deteriorate like gasoline.


"But no one was discussing your generator."



And there y'all go again. Never missing a chance to ruin a pleasant conversation.
What the 'ell is wrong with y'all?


Did that ruin it for you? Poor guy.
