Anyone aware of the fuel tank size on the skeeter 06 zx225 and also what is everyone running as far as additive?? ethanol treatment?? and is the ring free worth it. any info would be helpful. If I do run the ringfree how much and how often and same with the stabil ethanol treatment.

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%.

I am a mechanic but not in the marine side. I have been researching it for awhile and have heard so many different storys from dealers and marine mechanics i wanted to know what the guys that have been running the yammy's are doing. Really appreciate it.

Ring free, every time I gas up.. I run the boat regularly and *TRY* to use ethanol free gasoline.. No need for Stabil.
