Help, quick!
Do I put Stabil in first or after I fill my tank? I know I have to run it through but I don't know if I put it in and then fill or vice versa. Help much appreciated.

Drive to the gas station, put the Stabil in and then fill the tank.

I love the smell of sta-bil, smells like spring. Guess it's from running it through motorcycles when I take them out of storage. Good luck

Make sure the tank is full to avoid condensation and run the car long enough to get it to the injectors and cylinders.

fuel stabilizer - --used when you're going to store the car for the winter . . keeps the gas from breaking down and gumming things up.

Shouldn't be added to old gas, and it is only good for about a winter. It doesn't protect much longer than that.

The best thing to do is to dump the gas, and run them dry.
