Stabil Gas preservative

[JimPDX]

I want to put one of my cars up this winter and not drive it. Has anyone used Stabil? Would you recommend it, not recommend it?

Anyone used it in their P/car?

Thx...

I used it in my old 911 ('82) when I lived in Minnesota, worked fine. I'd always top off the gas before I stored it so no moisture would accumulate and then in spring top it off with fresh gas after a 1/4 tank or so.

I have used this for stuff for 20 years in my cars, motorcycles and lawnmowers. It keeps thing from getting gummed up without the need to drain the tank. I have never used it in the 996 since it is my daily driver.

I started using this after I gummed up a motorcycle tank several years ago. Before winter, I ran the bike out of gas and assumed everything would be ok. I spent the next spring repeatedly cleaning the carb. Finally resorted to putting lacquer thinner and marbles in the tank and shaking vigorously for several minutes. The crap that came out of the tank was unbelievable. Never happened again after using stabil.
