It's not Stabil, it is the Honda engine.
Nope, I let my Honda lawn mower sit for a year with untreated gas, had
to pull the carb to get her started...
I have a pressure washer with a Honda motor, and I haven't been impressed. Once started it runs fine, but it's hard to start. It's really finicky about how much choke it wants, and for how long after it fires.
By comparison, the big Shindaiwa backpack blower is a breeze. Prime, choke on, two easy pulls and it starts, then flip the choke off. 30 seconds or so of idling and it's ready. The previous Husqy blower with the Kawasaki motor was just as easy.
Yeah, my Honda pressure washer isn't the easiest thing to start either.
