Default Gas Treatment Opinions

I recently started using Lucas Ethanol Fuel Conditioner in all my 2 cycle engines. I had some premix left over from last year so I decided to test the product. I put the old premix in a couple of engines and neither of them would run. So I poured that tank full out and I poured about a third of a bottle of the Lucas into the remaining 3 gallons of old premix, I shook it up and let it sit over night. The next day I refueled the same two engines and they fired right up and have run fine ever since. I think that I am going to treat all of my premix with Lucas from now on.

It's a good idea to use when you have gas that sits up for over a month at a time. I use the startron star brite. It works great as well.

Must be new, when ever I go to an autoparts store, I look to see if someone has come up with a fix for that terrible stuff. Yamaha offers an addative, but very expensive. Probably made buy Lucas.

If I'm not mistaken at my local napa it's 9.99 but if you follow the instructions it says one ounce treats 5 gallons, however it also says that it won't hurt to add extra

Yes I also have used the same fuel treatment that's in the pic. The guy behind the counter at o'reilys swears by it.
