  • gas additives

    Can anyone suggest a good gas additive for my 92 115hp Johnson outboard? Or do I even need one?

    I use sta-bil for My Yammy 4 stroke. Back in the day I used 2+4 fuel conditioner in My Evinrude. That was before the ethanol came into play. I got it at Dockside Marine.

      Since the addition of ethanol to gas, you should always add a stabilizer. Alcohol absorbs water that will damage your motor.

            I'll use Seafoam til the day I die! ZERO issues so far.
            I work just enough to pay for my fishing habit.

                      I run a 92 Yammie, and do not run any additives. I do run a can of seafoam through it a couple times a year. I have a plastic tank and new fuel lines. i haven't had any issues, thankfully.

                      I am fortunate enough to run the boat once a week normally, but if it is going to sit up I don't fill the tank. I think filling it with new gas when i take it out helps.

                        You guys put this stuff in every tank? The guy at dockside told me to use 2 + 4 in my etec about every 4th tank. Should I be using one of the others every time?

                          You use your boat to much ethanol ain't got a chance!
