Re: STABIL


I had been using Stabil for years but had recently had problems with long term storage, (winter storage). I started having issues getting the carburated bike stated and running smoothly. Had to pull the carbs and give them a complete cleaning to get everything working properly.

Last year I stored the bike using K100 and decided to really put it to the test. Figuring that I had to clean the carbs agian in the spring, so I didn't drain them. Started the bike for the first time last week without a problem and it runs fine with no signs of hesitaion like the previous years before a complete cleaning of the carbs. Will definately continue to use this product. It was actually recommended by a local bike dealer for carb'd bikes and equip.

As for fuel injected bikes the Stabil works fine because of the higher fuel pressure that is used.
