Will be getting in my first 4 Stroke. It's a mercury. I won't use Stabil but wondering what you guys are running in yours.

Just use Mercury's Quickleen and Quickcare with every fill-up... Dan

If you consistently burn through a tank every several weeks, use as much as you do in your car.

New 4 strokes are designed for 10% ethanol. No need to put anything in it unless you are storing it for a long period.
Retirement best job ever.

I run non-ethanol in my 2021 4-stroke Merc, but I will add the (2) Mercury products periodically.

Yes, but something's actually serve a purpose. Ethanol treatments serve no purpose and don't do anything
