RE: Trouble with outboard
I have not yet had a problem with ethanol laced gas and 2 cycle oil (knock on wood). I have been using that combo for several years now as Ct went that way 4 or 5 years ago.
I use Valvetech stabilizer in all my gas cans. When the gas gets older than about 4 to 6 weeks I dump it into my 2005 Dodge truck and it doesn't know the difference. Only this season have I been disconnecting the fuel and running them dry at the end of the weekend. I feel better about doing that but I am not positive it's necessary.
I also do this (add valvetech) for my straight gas lawn mower and snowblower. At the end of the season I run them dry.
