I agree w/Ferm...usually a pretty safe position...if your fuel is mixed properly, then lubrication is covered...then you gotta make sure what happened to my 200 Merc DOESN'T happen to yours...carb leaned out and scorched #5 cyl...moral of that story: don't use old gas and don't use ethanol gas...

Since our engines were twins, I've been very worried after I saw what happened to yours. I can do the old gas part, but unfortunately, New Jersey doesn't allow non-ethanol gas to be sold in this state, so I'm SOL. .Was thinking that I'd start using Sta-Bil or some other brand that's made with an Ethanol gas formula

And when I mentioned old gas, I'm only talking about gas bought in May, engine goes down in June after putting 25-30 gals of Hi-Test on top of it...
