Pull it, add stabilzer, run it, fog it, done.

Top off in the spring with fresh and run it. Never an issue.


This is a good read:http://www.yachtsurvey.com/myth_of_c...fuel_tanks.htm
You're right Duffman, it's not much. I've seen a tank pulled and drained after sitting foor a long time. AND, Fin S, with the water seperater, you'll trap what's in there through you're lines and Stabilizer will help minimize it( I usually add just a bit more than called for too)....my boat sat two seasons ago in storeage and started and ran perfect the following year when I moved it to Belmar.
