carb. anyone know how i can get some stabilized fuel into the carb
without causing the antifreeze to exit the engine? im a winterizing

Its got to mix in with the gas. Only way of that happening is to run
the engine.

how long do you plan on letting the boat sit untill you're ready to use
it?

wel,l im trying to get fuel stabilizer into the carb and fuel lines,
the stabilized gas is only in the gas tank.

Respectfully, All that does is coat the valves and cylinders with oil.
It does not blend stabilizer in the gas or protect the carburetor.
Fogging with VCI oil is not the same as stabilizing gasoline.
