Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Hello,

I finally got myself a can of Sea Foam. This stuff is hard to get in Canada. I got it at Nappa Auto Parts........$13.00 a can. Okay I have a few questions. How much do you add to the gas can? Is this a good replacement for gas stabilizer or can you use booth at the same time? And what about the gas in the snowblower? Should I add some in the tank if so how much? or just wait till I top it off with mix in the gas can?

Sounds interesting, I normally use Pri-G at the end of season shutdown and then drain the tank and run it dry. I'll try Seafoam at the start of season.

I generally run two tanks of gas, one straight and one with 50:1 oil for the two strokes. Any unit that won't get used for a while gets emptied and/or a Pri-G treatment. I also dump the "old" gas into the car every three to four weeks.

I use PRI-G all year round for my lawn mower, leaf  blower and snow thrower.

 I even run it in my Dakota and Civic every 4th fill-up.  At 1 oz for 16 gal it goes a long way.

Where can you get the PRI-G for small engines. The regular PRI-G is so concentrated you need a microscopic ammount for one gallon. I would go from Stabil to PRI-G if it weren't such a pain to mix!

You can get graduated eye droppers or even graduated syringes for children's cough syrup. Either way they can measure in the range you need for a small jerry can of gas. Its almost exactly 2,000:1 so 1ml is good for 2L of gas, you folks in the US on on your own for this one, I keep getting mixed up since gallons are inherently funny .

Thanks Nibbler! I agree-Gallons are inherently funny------EXCEPT FOR THE PRICE! Thats no laughing matter.
