Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums General Tech How Much Sta-bil to add?

2007 - Bonneville America. I've filled up the tank for the winter. How much Sta-bil gets added?

Thanks!

I would have thought a product like that would say it on the label

I added about 55 ml to our '07. It's generally best to add the Sta-Bil first, and then fill the tank. This ensures proper mixing. You need to run the bike so that the mix goes through all the fuel lines, etc as well.

It should say how much per gallon on the bottle...put it in, then run the bike for a few minutes so it can work through the lines. I used to put it in, put the cap back on, then rock the bike around for a few minutes, then run it for several minutes. Overkill which amused my friends. If you pour it in, then start it up the next day for a few minutes, that works just fine.

Do everything Laurie suggests and you will be just fine.

to much is just enough

OK guys here's the "NEW" hot ticket for gas treatment..... Star Tron. Everything I've read and heard says this stuff takes the danger out of bad gas for small engines. Bikes,sleds etc. My local shop is selling tons of this product.. If gas goes to 15% ethanol we might need to use it at every fill-up.. Here's the E-mail address. www.starbrite.com V.

Oooops. That's www.starbrite.com www.startron.comm. V. Happy reading.. Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry interesting.

I switched to Marine Formula Stabil which is for ethanol treated gasoline.

i use Seafoam. dump in tank, fill tank with gas ,run bike 5 mins or so to get some to the carbs , done,see ya next year .done my TBA a coupla months ago,yami getting done this weekend.that Seafoam stuff is expensive, but its the bollox

Where ya getting your Seafoam from, Gordie?

I get it at Napa Keith,(with discount,)$25 for 2 bottles . Lordco probably have it too

Yea i know RW ,taxes and duties make everything up here expensive . I'll be heading down for some shopping soon . I'm down to my last 4 jugs of rotella ,so I'm due a visit to wallyworld

I buy Seafoam at WalMart and don't worry whether it's on sale or not. Gas doesn't stay in my bike long enough to get old, but I run some Seafoam through every 6 months. Works just as good with injectors as carbs.
