I'm debating what to do about my fuel system after I take the boat out of storage later this month. I probably have 30 gal I left in the 50 gal tank. I treated it with Stabil(not the Ethanol blend) and filled the fuel filter with 2 cycle oil. Started it and let it sit since October.
Now my question is how do I get everything ready for summer. I'm kinda concerned about the old fuel sitting in there over winter. Should I syphon it out, change filter and be done with it. Or just top it off and add one of the fuel treatments to remove water. I thought about upgrading to a racor instead of the $8 Quicksilver filter.
I'd rather syphon and dispose of the old fuel, its not worth causing problems for $100 worth of fuel.
