Do any of you guys use a gas treatment on a normal basis? What is the best for your boat engine?

B3C Engine Energy works the best for me. I've tried them all, seafoam, biobor, etc., and I always had trouble with the ethanol. I started using B3C and haven't looked back.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

I have used Yamaha ring free plus for the past 4 years and have no indication that anything else is necessary. That being said my boat never sits more than 2 weeks without being run.

My 83 Evinrude loves straight Avgas 100LL with full synthetic mix oil. That ethanol is hard to work around on the older motors, plus I never have to throw gas away because 100LL never goes bad.

stabilizer and keeps it clean, switch to full synthetic oil if you don't already use it and no more carbon build up either.

Per my Mechanic, Stabil every tank, Yama ring free every 3 tanks. I've had no issues.

If you do some serious research like I have you will find out that the best fuel additive treatment is Biobor hands down! Do ur research before putting anything in ur engine fellas.

ethanol destroys older fuel lines, carburetor gaskets/seals/floats even while it sits
