Do you still use a can of dry gas in winter

Electronic fuel injection, with an in-tank pressure pump pushing the gas, eliminated the need for gas line anti-freeze.
|
What about old cars with a carburetor
|
A carburetor vehicle with mechanical pump, driven in sub-zero temps, absolutely!
Fifty years ago my 283 Malibu DD died at -20. Two cans of de-icer and a half hour later, off I went. We kept gas tanks close to full back then. |
I always used it back in the sixties too,
|
Does the modern E10 (10% ethanol) fuel we have in the Midwest eliminate the need to add methanol anyways?
|
I don’t even use staybil in it either, the one year I did, my acc pump swelled. My mechanic said don’t use it.
|
I lived in the Chicago suburbs the first 56 years of my life. Never used any gasoline additives, and some of my vehicles sat outside in the winter. Like Bill W said, tried to keep the gas tank reasonably full to prevent moisture formation.
|
I have used Stabil for years in my M/C's, boats, jet-ski's, lawn equipment for years and have never had an issue by using it. Then again, never in the cold,, cold climates some of you live in.
|
If you have access to it.. AvGas (100 octane LL) will last a LONG time. I have it in my cars, and never an issue of it breaking down
