Re: CD-18 Drain fuel system

quote Al Lockhart:

For many years I have only used ethanol free premium fuel with stabilizer in every drop of fuel I use in my marine and other small engines. I never have a problem now even if a bit of fuel remains in the bowl.

Well, maybe I shouldn’t be so concerned about it then. I always use ESSO 91, which is supposed to be ethanol-free here, and I always use stabilizer in all my outboard and small-engine fuel. I have been paranoid about draining all fuel from my outboards because of repeated carb problems with my 2006 Honda 20hp outboard carb if any fuel sits in it for more than a couple of weeks even with ethanol-free, stabilized gas. The only thing that keeps that motor healthy is draining the carb after every use.
