[QUOTE="gillhunter, post: 255805, member: 5151"] I have a 3 gallon tank on my Honda 9.9 - 4 stroke. I had about 1 - 1/2 gallons left at the end of November. I had treated the tank with Sta bil blue. I dumped the old fuel into my mower, put fresh fuel in the boat tank about a month ago, treated it with Sta bil as always. So the fuel in the carb was probably 5 months old. The Honda fired right up. My mower didn't have any problem with the old fuel. I understand that un-treated ethanol - gas starts to break down after 3 weeks. So I don't know how long "treated" gas will last, I just know that mine didn't mess up my carb after 5 months. This is be coming a real issue these days for engines that get used infrequently or don't consume a lot of fuel. Having said that I have used sta bil in all my lawn equipment and boats for years with good results. [/QUOTE]
