I usually run my lawnmower, snowblower etc. empty if the gas is low or fill it full. Never have bought or used Stabil. The only problem I can remember was this fall with the snowblower. The float stuck and I couldn't get it started. A couple of taps on the side of the carb and off it ran. Someday I will probably end up like the guy in the commercial.

Someone was instructed to pick up ethanol free gas from Stewarts because yours truly was stuck at work and not able to leave. Someone chose to ignore advice and got regular gas. So I added the Stabil. The remaining fuel in the can will go into someones urban assault vehicle that keeps challenging the bounds of lane markers and makes a fuss about it by beeping and buzzing galore.

Some would argue that especially with metal gas tanks, it's better to fill the tank full and use stabil to eliminate
any condensation and rusting in the gas tank during storage.

Good advice. I only drain plastic tanks. The motorcycle has a metal tank and is always stored full.

^ is that in the concourse of the Empire State Plaza? I bet it’s the primest location for the most clueless foot traffic. I wonder if little speed shop has plans of expanding in Albany.

I was at the premier last weekend for a Watkins Glen short film put out by The Little Speed Shop that features that car.
TLSS is doing great things for the community. They had a Cars and Coffee (and donuts!) followed by a trip to an historic small movie theater for the free show. The theater lobby was decorated with framed vintage Grand Prix posters. They even made up commemorative tickets for those that attended. (Note the section/row/seat number.)
