Fuel capacity is 50 gallons. I use Stabil ethanol treatment and Sea Foam per manufacturers recs. on oz./gallon at EVERY fill up. I ran Yamalube in my carbureated motors so no need for ring-free. I'm now running a 250 SHO but still use the Stabil and Seafoam.
If you run Yamalube, you don't need ring free.

Ringfree and Biobor EB ethanol treatment. Biobor EB treats more fuel with less additive as well as cheaper, and also treats ethonal up to 20%.
