Re: carb winterizing question 3 Years, 3 Months ago  
I use stabilizer in my boat (all the time as I never know how long it will sit)  in the lawn mower as winter approaches , in my bike the last couple of tanks, even in my jerry cans  as the fuel we get ripped off for (or buy) has a very short shelf life do to the biodegradable junk they add. Bein doing this for years and it seems to help.  I never shut off the fuel and run the carbs empty so not sure if this would be better or not. On the old fuel/oil mix 2 stroke it helped but that was back when we still had lead in the fuel. Seen lots of nice green carbs back then. Without stabilizer you can get the same green mess. I have had stabilized fuel sit 2 years in a jerry can and still burn ok. (Knew I left that can somewhere)
