If I only use ValvTect  gasoline, do I need to put Stabil in my gas tank at the end of the season?

    i think it depends on how old the gas is in your tank. ValvTect is good for one year

    I use the same gas. I always put in a fuel stabilizer, every fill up. Personally I use PRI-G, but there are plenty of good ones to use.

    I was thinking you had a 270 and trailered it? Access to non ethanol gas?? I don't put anything in mine as we boat all year and don't really worry about it and since I do trailer, I'm paying a buck 80 for gas right now...well, at least as soon as I can get it back in the water...

    Im in a slip on the mississippi and there is no way in heck I would trailer that thing, A 265 is just a little too big for my jeep to pull.
    After some research I found that Valvtech is actually an additive that is added to the marinas tanks by the marina employee. SOO with that being said, I think I will be adding stabil at the end of the year. I trust the employees at the marinas around here about as far as I can spit a dead rat.
    Thanks for the replies

    I think the U.S.A just got a Gold and Bronze Medal in "Dead Rat Spitting" 
    Russia was favored to win but was disqualified for pumping their rats with H.G.H. ! HAHA

    I'm with @Black_Diamond , I put stabilizer in every time I put gas in my boat. At the end of the season, I put a bottle in the drive the boat around to get it thru the system. Might be overkill, but better safe than sorry.

    I started the beginning of last year putting Startron in with each fill-up as well.  I double it for winter.
