I looking for a different fuel stabilizer for winter storage and came across the product Liquid Performance Ethanol Equalizer; https://www.liquidperformance.com/pr...anol-equalizer. One ounce treat up to 10 gallons. Has anyone use this product?
I tried Stabil in the bike once, never again. I ran like **** until I drained it.
I use Seafoam now and I'm using the Stabil in the lawn equipment only.

Almost the same experience for me, a long time ago I treated the fuel on a Yamaha Banshee I put away for the winter with Stabil.
Added the exact amount called for on the side of the bottle.
The next season, I got on the quad and made sure to shake the fuel up good (premix)
When I started the quad it ran like ****, drained the fuel tank and put in fresh premix and ran perfect. Never used Stabil in anything after that
Now I don't use anything in my fuel, my stuff doesn't sit for more than 4-6 months or so at a time.
Anything that sits longer than that (generator, etc) I just use Rec fuel in
I've been using Star Bright Startron Enzyme fuel treatment with good luck.
I have a boat with a carbureted 3.0 litre Mercruiser that sat for 2 1/2 years with Phoenix's junk 10% ethanol gas that I had treated with Startron.
I thought I'd need a carb rebuild. But it fired up and runs great.

I Was surprised to find Stabil has a limited shelf life once opened. Maybe the issue 🤔
