I'ma go ahead and say it...Steve is a national treasure.

[CSPANwatcher]

You've just confirmed that what I've been doing is correct. I switched to 90 Octane, zero ethanol gas for all of my yard equipment about 20 years ago. I used to use Sta-Bil, but have been using Stihl Moto-Mix as a two-cycle fuel for 6+ years and it works great. I think your comment about not letting the carburetor diaphragm dry out makes a lot of sense.

[jaymay]

I’ve been running tru fuel for years in everything. Steve, you could have kept that a secret and made money off of any unsuspecting person needing tuneups and carb work, but you didn’t. That to me says a lot about your character. Not only am I a subscriber for that reason, but I’ve learned a ton from your videos. Thanks for all of your knowledge. Cheers!

[bryanproctor]

I switched to these super fuels about a year ago after watching one of your videos. Best thing I’ve ever done to make my small engine start and operate better. Worth the every penny. Thanks Steve!

[bullfrog]

That's what I'm talking about brother. Good old how to videos that help us guys keep our engines running.

Change is easy, but improvement is the real challenge - F. A. Porsche. That famous quote fits this video and Steve perfectly. He's always self improving and bringing his viewers the latest and up to date information that can benefit us all. Thanks Steve!

What I do...I use AvGas...the stuff from the airport, I've been doing it for years. It is 100 octane and it works great...of course you have to add oil, but it only cost about $5.00 a gallon.

[randy]

This is exactly what I do and is the best way.

[michaelshaley]

Been using the engineered fuel for about 5 years. Love it.

[StevenAakre]

Great tips. I'm sold on that being the best way to store my new string trimmer.

[MikeJones-jrhb]

I’ve always used Stabil in my gas & not had any problems since 2004 but that’s another good idea

[Ryan-tdtd]

so I don't need to anything that I didn't do yesterday. This was the perfect video for me. Thanks,

[justanotherviewer]

Looks like a simple way to winterize. I'll have to try it. Thanks Steve.

[knurlgnar]

This is why your channel is one of the best. Absolute common sense that is obvious once one thinks about it, but isn't obvious to those who haven't actually thought about it before. I'm doing this from now on.

[ccadama]

@Steve's Small Engine Saloon. Thanks for the tip. I had it down almost. You just filled in the details. LEAVE the MotoMix in my string trimmer but COMPLETELY fill the tank instead of emptying it. I only run MotoMix in my Echo.

Hope you and your family stay safe and well.

[captaincoyote]

I’m a retired federal natural resource manager; I was also a trained wildland firefighter. As a result, I came to depend on Stihl and the old Husquavarna chainsaws. So now, I buy only Stihl products....and run only “super fuel”. While I like Stihl’s MotoMix, I incur substantial savings with TruFuel. Great video, Sir!

[georgecolbert]

I use Stabil Storage in my fuel all year. I store the trimmers full. It's been working for me for years. I use 93 octane pump gas that has ethanol in it. Also I add RxP to my fuel to de-carbonize the engine. The RxP is pretty incredible. So I'm running these two additives at all times. No starting in the winter.

[clauslundberg]

Man - I have been preaching this to customers for years. Thanks Steve

[donniechapman]

Steve I watched your adding accessories on a Stihl weed eater straight shaft, I have one and sure didn't know this thankyou that was really helpful!
