Can't remember if I added Stabil to these cans of gasoline...

[SmallChange]

...so, is it a bigger problem if they get dosed twice? or if they don't get dosed at all?

If it helps, I think it's more likely that I did not add the Stabil.

Double dose is no big deal. If the gas is older than 30 days I'd use it up in the car and replace with fresh, unless it's ethanol free.

 

[dodge man]

I’d go ahead and dose it. You could do a slightly lower dose if your worried about it.

While youre dosing, change to Ethanol Shield. Better than StaBil

Double dose used to be written on the bottle for longer storage periods so it won't hurt anything.

Edit: Website states it as well,

STA-BIL Fuel Stabiliser - STA-BIL® Fuel Stabiliser

www.sta-bil.com.au

Dosage recommendations​

For seasonal storage, or when the fuel is likely to sit idle for more than 1-2 months but less than 12 months:

• 30ml for every 9.5 litres of fresh fuel

For longer storage periods e.g. 12 - 24 months:

• 60ml for every 9.5 litres of fresh fuel

For best results always store vehicles and equipment with a full tank of fuel rather than a near empty tank. Always run the engine for up to 5 minutes after adding STA-BIL® to ensure the entire fuel system is treated and not just the fuel stored in the fuel tank.

Well that was a foreign version I just noticed, the US version doesn't state it the same way but does have this,

Will over-dosage cause any harm?​

No, over-dosage is perfectly OK. However, we do not recommend adding more than 4 times the recommended amount. If more than 4 times has been added we recommend diluting the fuel.

Do you folks not have the option of ethanol free? Here (montana) usually the premium grade is without ethanol.

Here in Nova Scotia we don't. Used to up until 1-1/2 2 years ago then poof, gone. I even tried the local yacht club figuring if anywhere had it they would, nope.

Even if the fuel is ethanol free fuel stabilizer should still be used if stored for a month or more.

Cheap insurance. I’m using fuel additives everywhere. I only replaced one set of injectors @ $1,500 a piece.
We won’t be doing that again.
