I had purchased 2 bottles of Start-your engines after seeing them in a DIY booklet. I used the Sta-bil all the time only on one saw. We are forecast for severe storms so I felt I should start my gas generator, as well as my 4 chain saws. well guess what! only 1 saw started. I put fresh gas in all and still no luck. Then I used the Start your Engines and much to my surprise they all started! These 2 bottles saved me taking the generator, as well as 3 chain saws to the engine repair shop. What a great idea! for this product. thanks

just to let everyone know. my 2003 cavalier was getting 26 to 27 mpg. when i first got it i consistantly got 30mpg. i figured it was loss of compression due to wear or some other drag variable i wasnt aware of. (different tires) recently on an educated hunch i ran sta-bil at the recommended dose for every fill up and got a eye popping 33mpg. USE IT IN EVERYTHING. ethanol is robbing you blind. the 10% ethanol fuel was the only thing i can trace that has changed. this stuff works. please try it. my car runs smoother, starts easier and accelerates better. it just works.

I wanted to say thank you and to let others know how good your No leak engine oil treatment is. I was about to bite the bullet and replace the rear main in my truck. It leaked so bad it was covering the whole bottom of my truck. this can be a fire hazard!
as a last resort I tried a bottle of your No leak oil treatment. and to my surprise(honestly I didn't think it would work) it did! there isn't one drop of oil on my oil pan or anywhere under the truck.
I'll be using this product as long as you keep making it.
thanks again for saving me a day or two worth of work and headaches!
PS, I've been using your STA-BIL in my motorcycle for years. every spring after sitting for 4-5 months it starts right up. yet another product I can't live without!

STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer has saved me untold amounts of money in gasoline engine repair and maintenance. Before STA-Bil was available I had to usually do an annual carb overhaul and cleaning on the small gas engine tools and pumps around the farm. I follow the recommended mixture of STA-BIL with the gasoline and everything starts easily after extended storage. The Marine Formula STA-BIL is a miracle worker in the boat. I would recommend it to everyone that has a gas engine in a boat and especially one used on salt water. My 4 stroke, 140 hp outboard always starts in the spring after winter storage with just a few revolutions of cranking. Use STA-BIL and most of your common reasons for hard or no starting disappear.

Hi, Just a few words to let you know how close your products are to our family. Our son is currently in Iraq and we have been taking care of his truck that is in storage with your fuel stabilizer and antifreeze products. We are also a big supporter of the products through the LSMRA and my husband uses these products to race his lawn mower. Attached is a picture of our recent race in Bryan Texas where he came in 1st place in the BP division. This was his first win and as you can see it was a very lifting experience. Thank you for all you do with your products and the support of the USLMRA/LSMRA. I cant get him to mow the lawn because he is always racing his mower, GIZMOW, thanks again, from a lawn mower racing widow.

I have been a mechanic or racer or vehicle nut since I was 7 and driving a Go Kart. Hey anyone remember an old Mac 10 we thought we were great if we had two of those. Now for Stabil I have work for many auto shops. I then started a Motorcycle shop. I also taught Folks how to ride. even the Florida Highway Patrol. Even though Florida is a year around riding area we still told the guys to use stabil if they were going to put there bike up for more than one week. You would really be surprised how many one week layoffs turned out to be a six month lay off. and if they had not put the Sta Bil in they would have been Screwed Blued and Tattooed. Every product you have is great but the Sta Bil is a have to have need it all the time deal.

I am not a big fan of product indorsements, however in 2002 I purchased a Fleetwood Travel Trailer. It was equipped with an Onan Genset Generator that ran on gasoline. I ran it at my Hunt Camp in Alabama of and on, mostly on weekends, for about six months until our power was turned on. I did not run it again until about 16 months later when an Ice-Storm knocked out our power for two days. It was never started again until August of 2009, SIX YEARS LATER, when we installed new batteries and are currently using it in North Florida. All we did was ad 2 more gallons of gas to the existing 16 that were treated with Stabil and drain the Carburator. The unit has never missed a beat. I think 6 years between starts is rather extreme, but the unit has never had any problems.
I don't know how it works, but thanks for a great product!

I have been using STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer for more years than I can count. I use it in my riding (and push) mowers, snowblower, and outboard motor, on a regular basis and for storage. My outboard is 20 years old, the snowblower 15, the riding mower 10 and a 13 year old push mower. Never, once, have I had a problem with fuel. I wouldn't think of operating or storing any of these machines w/o this product.
Thanks!

Several years ago when gas prices skyrocketed, my 2000 Dodge Dakota started spending more time in the garage than on the road. Having used Sta-Bil for years in my small engine equipment, I had a 32 oz bottle on hand and started treating the gas in the Dakota with it. After several tankfuls, I noticed the truck began idling smoother and had better performance, especially when towing my travel trailer. Noticing the benefits of using Sta-Bil in the truck, I started treating a tankful of gas in my Saturn with Sta-Bil (instead of the fuel injector cleaner I was using) every 1200 - 1500 miles, and have noticed better performance with the Saturn as well.
Great product!

I have been using Stabil in my boat and two lawn mowers ( one is a rider ) for years. I live in the Northeast so these items are not used during winter months. Every spring when the time comes to work and play again, the motors spring to life as if they never had a layup period. Almost forgot, Stabil gets used in my snowblower also.
I recommend this product most highly

I have a 1 ton dodge van b3500 with a 318 engine.For 2 weeks it would run rough off and on. The engine would misfire, stall and on and on. So I put 10 oz of stabil in the tank and it stopped it completely. no problems, I will use it once a month now to clean out the ethanol problem of water forming in the tank.

I have been usingSTA-BIL for years in all my lawn equipment, and also my boat engine. I recently switched to the blue Marine formula due to the ethanol fuel problems. I especially like the container in which you sell STA-BIL. The dispensing spout makes it so easy to measure the required amount needed without any other measuring cups, etc.

Since purchasing my boat in 2003,whether fishing offshore or pleasure boating the inland waterway I can count on my outboard performing well thanks toSTA-BIL. Adding STA-BIL each fillup has kept the engine clean.. even my mechanic can see the difference it makes.

I just started my 2 four wheelers 1 is a Honda Recon (2004) the other is a Kawasaki Brute Force 750 (2005) the last time these were ran was 6/2007 it is 9/2009 the recon started right up with a new battery. the kawasaki I had to charge the battery and it also fired right up. STA-BIL is amasing stuff. I put this in these 2 machines when I had a problem with another Recon I had. I had a heck of a time getting it to run. I finally did get it to run and sold it. It took me the bigest share of a week to get it to run like it should. I put it my gas can and then fill it I use it in all my outdoor equipment. My Internation 350 utility, My mowers 4 wheelers. this stuff should be used all the time its not that expensive compared to the damage caused buy not using it. Thank for a great product and keep on making it.

I had not used my chain saw in 2 years. When I needed it, it would not start. The next year, I needed it again and it still would not start. I dumped out the old fuel, put a few ounces of STA-BIL into the fuel tank, Pushed the primer bulb 4 or 5 times. Then I squirted more STA-BIL into the Carb intake. I removed the spark plug wire, and pulled the start rope slowly 3 times. 2 days later, I pulled it through 3 more times. Finally 2 days later, I added fresh fuel, cleaned the spark plug, and after 3 pulls, the chainsaw started and has been running ever since. I use STA-BIL in the fuel for my mowers, weed eaters, and in my boat gas. I would not be without it.

Our TV show Northeast Angling owns and operates boats located throughout the region. These boats may be idle for weeks or months before we show up and use them for filming. We always use Marine Formula Sta-Bil in all of them. We know that no matter how long they sit, that they will be ready when the moment comes for us to jump board and take get in on a hit bite! When winter finally arrives and our boats are laid up for months, we make sure the tanks are topped off with fuel and Sta-Bil is added to ensure that we will get the best possible performance when spring finally arrives. It also ensures that we will not have any ethanol related failures when we are filming many miles from shore!

Hello Gold Eagle,
I Just pulled my two motorcycles out of the back of the garage after 21 months of storage. I had run them both (Honda "1984" V-65 Magna and "1964" Honda 305 SuperHawk) before they went into the "old" garage while I built a new BIG garage. While running (back in Oct 2007), I put the recommended amount of STA-BIL fuel preserver in the tanks and let it run through for about 5 minutes. I shut them down, put them in and covered them up. 21 months later and Spring has finally sprung in Connecticut. The "new" garage (1000 sq. ft.) is done so I got the bikes out of the corner and let them see sunlight. It took only a little charge on the batteries until they both fired right up and ran like I had them out yesterday. I've had the Magna since new (25 years) and have never had the "first-run" be so easy. Customer for life!
Awesome product - thank you!!

I am a single female that has mowed a lot of grass since childhood.
Currently, I mow a 1/2 acre, 2 acres & part of 4 wooded acres.
Due to the great "boost" of energy that STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer, I am using gasoline from hurricane Gustave that I bought last year during a trip to Little Rock, AK. I currently live in Lafayette, LA (right in the heart of Cajun country). I am able to easily start mowers with old gasoline from 2008. WOW!!!
Thanks for STA-BIL Fuel Stabilizer!

I'm proud to say that as of 2009 I've switched from all the other brands of stabilizer to "STA-BIL", I parked my boat in Oct. of 2006 which had a bad engine so it has set ever since then. On June 15th [2009] we cleaned the boat and I was going to drain the gas (17 gallons)and fill it with fresh but my wife noticed the bottle of "STA-BIL" and mentioned that we had treated it before the last tournament I fished. I told her that the gas would be nasty and it will never start. Boy was I wrong, not only did it start it runs better now than it ever has!!!!
I will NEVER use anything else!!!!

I have a 1969 Oldsmobile 442, restored to original. 2 years ago I broke my neck, and was laid up in the hospital in a body brace for about 25 months. Before putting the car away for storage, I filled up the tank and added a bottle of STA-BIL as directed. Unbelievably, I went out to start the car this morning for the first time and it started like new! It didn’t miss and had no popping back to the carburetor, drove it about 100 miles, went to the gas station and filled it up again, and put another bottle of STA-BIL in it. I’m just tickled to death….
I thought for SURE I was going to be emptying the fuel tank and putting a new carburetor on it at least, but I pulled a little bit of the fuel out and it had no “varnishy” smell and the 442 has high compression 12½:1 and it ran great with high octane fuel. Just wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your product, and am going to use it in every boat, and every vehicle that I own. You guys make a product that does better than it says it does, and that’s pretty rare these days.
Thank you!

I am writing to tell you how pleased I am with your product. I also wanted to write & thank you for how much money you'll be saving me this year. Every winter I use STA-BIL in my Harley when I put it away for storage. It was recommended by a friend of mine, so I never had to learn from experience about gas going bad, gumming up, etc. Good for that!
STA-BIL is like a license to print money. Thanks again!

A quick testimonial about your gas additive STA-BIL. Two years ago I put a commercial mower in storage and placed STA-BIL in the fuel tank per instructions. After two years I removed the mower from storage and it fired right up and ran fine. Its refreshing to find a product that actually does what it advertises.

In past years I always had trouble starting lawn equipment and my motorcycle that are stored for the long Michigan winter. Last fall, upon advise from a friend, I purchased STA-BIL and used it in my lawnmower, garden tractor, weedwacker, chainsaw and motorcycle. To my surprise everything started immediately--even the motorcycle which has 4 carburetors. It was also a pleasant surprise to find your product is American made.

“Howdy all! My name is Ed Carlson and I am a Guide and Outfitter Captain here on the Red River of the North.
I would like to commend you on your new Blue Marine STA-BIL product. I have been using it since it came out and I am pleased to report Zero fuel or other problems on my boats and ice augers these past 2 seasons...zero...that is a first for me. Performance has most certainly been enhanced as well.
I know it is your product and I am eager and confident in recommending it to my clients and fellow guides here in the USA and Canada. I will not run a motor without it now, you can count on that.”

"I have been using Sta-Bil for several years in all my boats and lawn equipment. I know that when I add it to the things I am not going to use for awhile the moment I go to start they start on the first time. There are other stabilizers that work but nothing works as good as Sta-Bil. It's crazy not to use Sta-Bil on the things we spend so much on. When you get ready for the new season it is nice to just start it up and go."

"Hi, I live in a small town named Bourget, IN Ontario, Canada. Last fall I purchased a container of STA-BIL from Canadian Tire. I used your product in my 1956 Ford Meteor Rideau. In spring of 2008 when I started my car it cranked over a few times and started like it never did before. I was going to install an electric fuel pump, but now I don't need it. I forgot to mention that I use STA-BIL at every fill up and my car just purrsss."

"I just wanted to let you know how much I've been impressed with your product. In the past I've taken my boat to the dealer because it wouldn't start, and now I know the reason, and your product saved me money this time. What started this whole thing is my 1989 Bronco II that my son and I have. It sat for 8 months and then wouldn't start. I'm sure you know what happened, the gas went bad and varnished the fuel injectors and it wouldn't start. My mechanic and also my friend told me to use your product, and I'm glad he did. I like to give credit to companies that deserve it, especially products made in the USA. I will forever use and promote your product from now on."

“Just would like to let you know that while I was in Korea, I used STA-BIL in my car's gas tank. The tank was close to half full, I put STA-BIL in and ran the car for 5 - 10 minutes then left the car inside storage. Three years later I come back to the U.S. and started the car, drove to the gas station and filled up the tank. I don't think it would have started as easy with out your product. Thank You.”

“Thank you for such an outstanding (STA-BIL) product. Thanks for a product that truly made my life better. I added more STA-BIL to the tank while we were on the water so it could run through the lines and carburetor while running back to the ramp.”

"I'm writing to let you know that STA-BIL is an excellent product. I moved out of my house into an apartment almost 2 years ago. My lawn equipment and fuel cans went into storage at that time. At the recommendation of my neighbor, I purchased, and used STA-BIL in all of the fuel, in the cans, and in what was left in the mower, weed-eater, edger, etc. This last weekend, I got my equipment together to do some yard work for my sister. All of the equipment started as though it never went into storage. I'll keep using it, and recommend it to my friends. Great product!"
