Hi. It is not necessary to keep adding a stabilizer when simply topping off the tank. We would rather recommend it when your cycling your fuel, meaning running the fuel as low as possible then fill it up again. Actually, cycling the fuel every so often is recommended to help avoid sediment and other contaminants from causing issues later on. Hope this is useful. Please let us know if you have any questions!

There will be diminishing quantities of old gasoline, but they will be always there. I suppose the additives in the new gas I put in every month will prevent the old gasoline from going bad?

Hi, Nancy. Yes, it would be best to drain this fuel and start fresh as this additive is heavier and may not dilute fully in the gas, which may cause performance issues.

It seems no matter what gas or octane you use that one should be using a quality octane booster for maximum peformance and fuel economy.

I added 2 ounces of diesel antigel to each 5.5 gallon lawnmower tank. Do I need to drain the gas tanks and get new fuel? If not, should I add gasoline stabilizer? I have been using 100% gas in the tanks for years.

Hello! A 12 oz. bottle of ISO-HEET® will treat 8-20 gallons. If you have less than 8 gallons then we recommend 1.5 oz per gallon of HEET®. Also, HEET® Products are not recommended for storage purposes and must use the car. If you have any other questions please contact consumer support at producttechsupport@goldeagle.com

How do you apply the ratio when you use ISO-HEET water remover to gas gallon, does the car need to be running. Since the car is not running how long will it be to take effect?

Hi Peter, if you’re using STA-BIL Storage (red) then the treatment rate is one ounce per every 2.5 gallons of gas. If you are using STA-BIL 360 Performance then the treatment rate is once ounce per every 5 gallons of gas. Please contact us at producttechsupport@goldeagle.com if you have any questions about this. Thank you.

The label states “for off road only” because we are not (yet) on the EPA’s list for “On road use”. However, it is completely fine and safe to use on regular streets and highways. Please contact us at producttechsupport@goldeagle.com if you have any questions about this. Thank you.
