Briggs engine with fuel stabilizer capsule in gas cap

[nine51]

If I recall correctly, the reason to use blue Stabil is to counteract the effects of the ethanol in gasoline. Even if you blow through gas fairly quickly, the ethanol is the problem with small engines like those used in marine and lawn & garden applications. Secondary use is for winter storage, even if you run it "dry" before storage. I use it in all of my small engines. Sold an Ahrens snowblower two years ago that I bought new in 1978, and it still started first pull. Used Stabil in every tank (first red, then blue when it came on the market) and Mobil 1 synthetic oil all it's life.
