Start Your Engine works great. I used it in my lawn mower, which I could not get to work. I put the whole container in and within 15 min. it was running great. Thank you.

I had a snow blower that I didn't put any fuel stabilizer in the previous season and last season I couldn't get the thing started. I knew it must be gummed up fuel in the lines. I used a can of Start Your Engines! and what do you know, it started right up! Amazing product and it saved me an expensive trip to the small engine repair shop.

Start Your Engine works!! Really. Our 11 year old Snapper snow blower just would not start. Had planned on taking in for repairs-then I saw your ad on tv. Figured we could at least give it try. Added to the snow blower-took a few pulls but it started and continued to run. We are ready for the snow. It is a great product. Glad we gave it a try. Thanks :)

This pass winter the day before a blizzard was to hit us, I tried to start my snow thower. No matter what I did, it wouldn't start. I put Gumout in the tank, along with seafoam carb cleaner. It still wouldn't start. I took the carbuerator off the engine to clean and check it, reinstalled it and it still didn't start. A friend of mine took the carb apart and checked. If I squirted gas into the carb it would run long enough until the gas ran out. It just wouldn't start on it's own. Everyone told me I needed a new carb. $120.00 estimate. Yesterday I put a can of Start in the gas tank, followed the directions on the can, and the snow thrower started on it's own. I started and stopped the engine for over a half hour. Each time it started without hesitation. So let me give you a new slogan for your product. As we call it around the Daniels' household, "A miracle in a can"
Thanks for your product. I already told over 15 guys at work today about your product. Especially the ones who help with the snow thrower.

I have a Toro Personal Pace lawn mower that is 6 years old. It has never failed to start within the advertised 2 pull concept. However, this year it decided not to cooperate. I pulled until I was beginning to use words that I would not want my grandchildren to hear. I drained the tank from last year and put in fresh gas. Still nothing. Not even a peep out of it. Changed the plug. Nothing. Stopped at Wal Marts in Bryan, OH and bought a bottle of Start Your Engine product. I put the bottle in and it still failed, there was nothing. I checked out everything, air filter, fuel lines, etc. and found nothing out of place. I contacted the company and told them my story. They said to try another bottle. I did. After shaking the mower with a full tank of gas and another bottle of Start Your Engine, low and behold it started and runs fine. I mowed my grass twice since, and the mower starts on the first or second pull. This stuff really works. I guess that my mower was just bull headed enough not to start in the first instance. I have learned my lesson.

I saw the "Start" product advertised for the first time this season. I have used the "Sta-Bil" product in the past with satisfied results so I thought I'd give the "Start" product a try. I've been an automotive an small engine tech all my life. The fist can I used 2 oz in the roto-tiller that hadn't been run in 3 years. I did not add any fresh fuel and the thing started on the 3rd pull and ran fairly smooth. I put the other 2 oz in my generator which hunted for an idle the last time I ran it and it too started right up and idled as designed. I have rebuilt many carbs and fuel systems in the past and although the product is a little pricey for 4 ozs.... it's worth the money in down time, labor, and parts. Hopefully my neighbors don't catch on too quick, the extra cash to get theirs running too helps with the price of fuel. Thank you.

My lawn edger started giving me trouble so I changed the plug and cleaned the air filter, it didn't help. It stopped working last summer. I put in some Start in the gas and finally got it working. It ran better than new, I went out and edged my lawn. I was ready to toss out my edger, before I added " Start ".

I heard it on the radio and decided to try it on my 30 year old troy bilt tiller and it had been setting up for more than a year. 5 pulls on the starter cord and WOW! I was convienced.... This is the best product to hit the market. I tinker with small engines and this product is the best by far!!!!!!!! I would highly reccomend this to anyone that has a small engine that has not started in a long time to try this as it will save you big $$$$$$ on replacing a carborator or having repairs to get your engine running..

I bought your Start Fuel System Revitalizer because I was getting tired of rebuilding small engine carburetors for everybody I know. Once they get dirty, then you have got to pull them off, clean and rebuild them. But I also did not really believe Start would work. A friend asked if I could fix an older push mower that he had been given. It was hard to start (needed starting fluid) and ran rough and stalled. I was not really in the mood to pull off the dirty carb so I thought I would try the Start Revitalizer and when it did not work, then I would pull the carb. I put the whole can in and topped off the gas. Needed starting fluid to start for 1st 3 times and still ran rough. I was about to give up when I thought I give it one more try. I fired it up and it started to run better, I gave it some throttle and it ran better yet. After about a minute it smoothed right out and ran like normal,no more chugging, coughing and stalling! I ran it for about 20 minutes and it still ran great. I shut it off for about 1/2 hour and could not believe when it started right up without any starting fluid or priming! You guys have a revolutionary product! This is gonna save me a ton of money and time not having to rebuild carbs on small engines anymore. THANKS!!!

as a Physician, and first responder I know the meaning of being prepared. I had purchased "Start your Engines" after a ad appeared in a diy magazine. It came to the rescue!!!. While testing my chain saws and generator prior to Hurricane Earl(missed us). despite using fresh gas and sta-bil on a regular basis I was left with 2 chain saws and a generator which would not start despite my best efforts. I used 2 bottles of "Start your Engines". They worked as advertised.Boy did they save the day. ran the tanks out and put fresh fuel in. Just ran out and purchased 2 more for myself and 2 for my son. No person should be without it.

I have a 10 yr old lawnmower & have had it in the shop twice for no start. Today, it ran fine then died. If I primed it , it would run 3 seconds & die. I replaced filter, plug & gas--no start. It would run 3 seconds after I hit prime bulb , then die. I saw your ad in Handyman mag & was mighty skeptical. But, I figured 8 bucks was worth a shot to save $100 repair bill. I put 2 oz & gas & hit prime bulb 5 times. After 5 trys, it started up & is running fine. Now it starts on first pull. I have a friend who is a landscaper & can't wait to tell him about "Start your engines". I never would have believed it unless I tried it myself. THANKS!!!!

I just picked up a bottle of Start Your Engines!™ for use on a leaf blower that I have not used for 5 years due to poor performance and hard starting. I have to admit that I was skeptical that your product would work. I was truly amazed! Following the instructions, my blower now performs as it did when it was new. I am on my way to get my next bottle to keep in my tool shed. Thanks for introducing a GREAT product!

THE BEST!!!!!!!!!! The snow blower after sitting in the garage all summer and the first storm on the way is the time that I decide to start the snow blower for the first time. Half a can of "Start Your Engines" and on the first pull it's up and running. Thanks

This must be the worst winter in history here in New England. Storm and storm, we've gone out and shoveled ridiculous amounts of snow. All the while, our 45 year old Simplicity snowblower was dormant in our garage, unable to start for 4 + years. It has always been a major thorn in my side - not being to get it started. While I was not sure what the actual problem was in terms of why it wouldn't start - I found Start Your Engines via the web and decided to give it a try. Shocking, it started on the 5th pull and I think it is actually running smoother then it did when my father used it - in my youth (30 yrs ago). Simply Amazing.
I wish I found your product sooner. With 2 more storms coming this week, all I can say is - I'm so very grateful for Start Your Engines' ability to bring my old snowblower back to life. Thank you!!!!

You made my day!!! In short (but) much longer...our snowblower
wouldn't start. My husband and my son in law (the car mechanic) worked on it
for 2 days. I said get some Start Your Engines! ..Lou said it works. They both
said this **** isn't going to work. well, off to the Ace and home, it took 5
min. and it was running. Wow, you just don't know the great day I had
yesterday saying I told you so over and over!

I wanted to let you know I tried your new product Start Your Engines!. It's a marvelous product. It really worked very well on a Snowblower that would not operate. I've told 2 people about it already today.

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

This past weekend, my neighbor was having a hard time getting his lawnmower going. He tried pulling the rope several times, then his son-in-law tried several pulls and finally my other neighbor tried. All together, they tried starting the mower about 25 times (yanking the rope!). It would not start.
I had picked up a bottle of Start Your Engines at Walmart to clean out the fuel system in my 5 year old mower, so I thought this would be the perfect time to try it.
As I was walking over to his house, they were breaking down the mower so that it would fit in the back of his van. I stopped him and told him about this product that I had. He pulled his mower back out and we put in about 2 ounces to mix with his fuel.
I told him to pull the rope 5 times to help get the mixture into the fuel system and then to wait a couple of minutes. A few minutes later, he pulled the rope and it started right up! IT WORKED! Start Your Engines took care of his starting problem in no time!
The rest of my product went straight into my Honda mower, which is running nice and smooth!
Thank you for making a great product that does what it says!
Thank You.

I have a pressure cleaner that had been sitting around with gas in it for about 6 months, when i went to run it, it wouldn't turn on. So me and a friend did the logical troubleshooting steps, we changed the oil, changed the plug, flushed out the old gas and put new gas in, took apart the carb and thoroughly cleaned it with carb and choke spray,and nothing helped. I thought i was either going to have to get a new carb or get it rebuilt, but then my mother saw an add for this product so we went to our local walmart and bought a bottle, poured in half of it and a few pulls later it started right up. Trust me I'm a very skeptical person and this worked for me, id definitely use this again, and recommend it to anyone.

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! YOU STARTED MY ENGINE!
My Toro lawnmower gave up the ghost shortly after the 2 year period where it was guaranteed to start on first pull around February of this year. Week after week I went through the motions of pulling my shoulder out and ultimately shelling out $20 to one of the comml. cutters to do my 50’ x 100’ lot in my mfrd. home community. At 81 and on a tight Social Security budget plus having been suckered into paying big bucks to a sm. engine repair service in the past; one I later discovered had a questionable reputation for honesty; not the route for me to take.
My car service guy suggested I try STA-BIL®. At my local Wal-Mart I found Start Your Engines!® right next to STA-BIL® - sure sounded like just what I wanted. I bought both, kept my fingers crossed and hoped “Start” would live up to its own promotion.
‘EUREKA’ IT DID!
You made me a believer. I’ll pass the word along every time I can. Not only did you save me money, you saved me broken toes from kicking the Toro. You also got me out getting the exercise I need by doing my own lawn. Thank you – Thank you – Thank you!

As a guy who is not much of a mechanic I can say that Start Your Engines saved me a HUGE headache!
I had forgotten to remove the gas or add Sta-Bil from last season so when I tried to fire up the snowblower recently it wouldn't start. Thankfully Start Your Engines is around... half a can of Start Your Engines and a couple of pulls later my snowblower runs perfectly!
Thanks for saving me a huge headache and a huge amount in service fees!

I just wanted to thank you for the "Start your engines!" formula it works great although I was skeptical at first. I thought you'd like to hear about my account. I needed to use my gas powered hedge trimmer at a customer's home. Normally this isn't an issue, however I hadn't used it since last April nor remembered to remove the gas out of the tank before I stored it. When I took out the trimmer I noticed that it had gas in the tank and tried to top it off and start it. After 5 minutes or so of trying to start it, I remembered the "start your engines" additive. I dumped the gas in the trimmer back into the gas can and added half the bottle into the gallon of gas according to the directions. I then filled the trimmer back up and on the third pull it started! I ran really rough for the first minute or so but as I shut the choke off it came out of it's rough idle and ran perfectly for the remainder of the job. When I put the trimmer back into my enclosed trailer , I emptied the rest of the bottle into the tank of my generator. When I got back to the shop I put the Sta-bil samples in my boat tank as well as both of my trucks. You made a believer out of me thank you again

Developed a problem with hot stalls on my Toro snowthrower after ~10 years of use in Chicago w/o maintenance (oops!).
Changed the plug, and that didn't help. Had to dump the bad gas and refuel. I added Start Your Engines! for good measure.
Fixed!

I recently had the opportunity to try your new product Start Your Engines!®. I have a leaf blower that I have been unable to start for the past year. I used Start Your Engines! as recommended, and, to my amazement the blower started in only a few pulls. It has continued to run ever since. I have recommended this to a friend who has had the same results on a similar tool. Impressive is all I can say, in a time when so many products make claims that never happen, it's nice to find a product that actually does what its manufacturer says it will do. Thank you for a great product. I will recommend it to anyone having the same problem I had, and it is much better than buying a new leaf blower.
One satisfied customer, Thank You

Every once in a while you think "Now why doesn't someone invent...?" When I read the ad in this month's "Popular Mechanics" about "Start Your Engines!" I thought to myself: Finally! And then just a quickly thought that it can't really do what the ad claims.
I'm happy to report I was wrong. I have a gas-powered Edger that I haven't used in two or three years. Unfortunately, I did not totally empty the gasoline when I stopped using it. Not to my surprise it was impossible to start. I decided to invest the $10 for a container of "Start Your Engines!". I emptied half the container into the fuel tank and added some fresh gasoline. I pushed the primer button five times and lo' and behold the darn thing started on the fifth pull! I was ready to dump the Edger since I didn't want to spend over fifty bucks to get someone to rebuild the carburetor. Thank You Gold Eagle! You rescued my Edger from the dump and allowed me to make my yard look better. I was so impressed that I called the Ace Hardware store where I bought it and told them what a wonderful product they were selling!

I have an outboard motor, an old 1980's Ward's Sea King 15hp. I tried to start it taking several pulls on the rcoil starter. The engine would sputter and die. I then thought of the radio commercial I heard on the Score670 radio. I went to Ace Hardware and bought Start Your Engines!. I mixed it in the gas tank, 3 pulls later up fired the engine. It sputtered for a couple of seconds then bingo ran like new!
This for an engine that had not been started in 3+ years. All I can say is you go Gold Eagle.

I got some Start Your Engines!® at last year’s Hotrod Power Tour and I had a lawnmower that would not work, it would not start. I poured some in and it starts up every time now, it works great!

I received the Start product today. I tried this in a brand new snow thrower that my brother in law had. It had been used one time last year and was left to sit all year with the gas in it. This year he was not able to start it. I asked him to let me take it home with me and I would check it out, since I had just seen your advertisement in the latest issue of the Handyman magazine. Well today was the test. I can say that I poured one half of the bottle into the tank and the snow thrower did not start. But hold on. I put the rest into the tank and lo and behold the thing started.
You have a believer in your product and I will be talking it up to everyone I see and talk to.
Thanks for a great product that did not disappoint.
