If you have 4-wk-old gas (without ethanol) that is treated with Stabil, can you use PRI-G to retreat it?

well ... i have done sorta the same thing --- the gas (non -alcohol- about 4 gallons in a jerry can) was maybe seven (plus) weeks old (treated with stabil) and i put the required amount of pri-g in it - let it sit for the morning (maybe three hours) and used it in my old chainsaw for the rest of the day = maybe four or five hours of 'bucking' and i had no problems ... i was told this process would work and thought i would give it a try and it worked for me .... hope that experience i had gives an answer to your question ---- that pri-g just seems to be the best 'treatment' i have ever used = it just-simply works well ... i have done sorta the same thing --- the gas (non -alcohol- about 4 gallons in a jerry can) was maybe seven (plus) weeks old (treated with stabil) and i put the required amount of pri-g in it - let it sit for the morning (maybe three hours) and used it in my old chainsaw for the rest of the day = maybe four or five hours of 'bucking' and i had no problems ... i was told this process would work and thought i would give it a try and it worked for me .... hope that experience i had gives an answer to your question ---- that pri-g just seems to be the best 'treatment' i have ever used... » Read More well ... i have done sorta the same thing --- the gas (non -alcohol- about 4 gallons in a jerry can) was maybe seven (plus) weeks old (treated with stabil) and i put the required amount of pri-g in it - let it sit for the morning (maybe three hours) and used it in my old chainsaw for the rest of the day = maybe four or five hours of 'bucking' and i had no problems ... i was told this process would work and thought i would give it a try and it worked for me .... hope that experience i had gives an answer to your question ---- that pri-g just seems to be the best 'treatment' i have ever used = it just-simply works « Show Less

I put the required amount in some ethanol gas that was three years old and ran it in my lawnmower with no problem. This gas had stabil added 3 years ago. Worked great!!

I have used Pri-G with Stabil and Seafoam with no problems at all. The longest I have ever stored fuel is one year and it smelled freshand ran great. I have never had a fuel problem with my cars, trucks or equipment using Pri-G.

I use the cheapest (and lowest octane) gas I can find these days. I do however use Marine Grade StaBil in every refill I get from the station. Any of the StaBil gas additives will work, but the Husgvarna rep told me that the Marine Grade would hold up much better. I leave gas in the cans and even in the equipment ( mowers, blowers, edgers, etc.) while stored for the winter and the StaBil holds the gas over quite well. For equipment that I use in the late fall and winter (the blower) I use whatever gas treatment for moister removal that the local Advance Auto has on sale (same stuff I use in my automobiles). Hope this helps. I use the cheapest (and lowest octane) gas I can find these days. I do however use Marine Grade StaBil in every refill I get from the station.

I would recommend denatured alcohol, which you can find in most hardware stores without a problem. I took a quick look online regarding the use of propane and couldn't find much. Fortunately, the alcohol is cheap, burns clean, and is easy to carry.

You can but you may need to use two cartridges of gas to get the results you are used to. I don't leave the gas cartridges screwed in. Pointless with the stop valve. don't forget to shake it each time you use it.

My owners manual recommends that you run the tank empty. It also recommends that if you must store the unit with gas in it, that you make sure you do two things. Always treat your gasoline with some quality fuel stabilizer, like STAR TRON and that you turn off the the gas line valve, and let it continue to run until it shuts off. That will keep your carb and parts from the effects of ethanol fuels. You could get a siphon like used with a kerosene heater and reverse siphon the gas out of the tank into a gas can.

I am sure you could but after some time has gone by and I have tried other products like V7 chemical guys I would advise to stay away from this one. Check out CARCHEM products are good to

No. Only rusty gas tanks need treatment. Keep the gas clear of water or empty all fuel out if storing a device for winter so it cannot absorb moisture (like garden equipment). I used it because I ignored my own advice and left the back-up generator with fuel for a couple of years! I do agree with the second answer idepending where you live, for example in the Caribbean our humidity is 83-88%

Sandi, I do not know the answer to that. We used it all & disposed of the can. It worked beautifully for us though & I still recommend. What are you priming with it? We used on formica as it was the only product I could find for that purpose. Good luck. Annette

I'd get rid of it. Once it goes sour it's no good and can't be saved. PRI-G should be added before the gas goes stale.

I would imagine it would have an indefinite shelf life if not missed with gas, if you have any questions go to PRI-g web site.

All outdoor power equipment is negatively impacted by ethanol, regardless of brand. You can use ethanol free 50:1 mix but that can get expensive. Other then that, use stabil and don't put fuel older than 2 months into any of your equipment.

Yes. Owner's manual specifically states that ethanol gasoline will reduce engine life. Use of ethanol gas will void the 7 year warranty.

Yes but 10 months without stabilizer should be OK to use without it. I have used gas several years old with no problems.

A good way to remove gas is to use a siphon pump like that used for filling kerosine heaters. Then run the engine until it runs out of the remaining fuel that will clear the line and carburator. I would store it dry for long term with no use.

don't use anything but regular fuel. One without ethanol. Purge the system of any ethanol fuel.

It comes with a rather useful holder designed for the newer "fatty" tanks. Yes, you can use MAPP gas with it.

The stabilizer is more for storage, We have had great results with the Ethanol Treatment. Customers are reporting a noticeable difference in there performance after using the product!
