Working for a marine parts wholesaler, we sell Startron gas/diesel and Stabil products. Startron sales far exceed Stabil sales.

Startron was developed by Yamaha Marine for the ethanol fuels.

Stabil with Marine (Ethanol Free) Gas.

21 year old Lawnmower, 3 chain saws, 6 generators, Stihl Combi tool, 200hp Mercury, all use the above combination with ZERO issues, ever.

I went to the local marina got a bottle of what they sell, Mercury if I remember correctly. I figure boats get a lot of abuse storage time and damp environment too.

I used to love those little ~0.5 ounce bottles of startron for the motorcycle; I could keep one in my jacket and use for fill-ups when E0 was not available.... Expensive though, I tried to refill them from larger bottle of Startron or Stabill but the little bottle caps seem to self destruct after a few uses... too bad, it was a great system

If possible always run your unit out of gas so that the carb is also empty,
Back when I was riding Harlys the one time I used Stabil it looked like cottage cheese the next spring.
If I use anything now it is Seafoam.

Sea foam. Works wonders.
