Stale fuel used to ruin my fishing trips — hard starts, sputtering, clogged carbs. Now I never store gas without adding a fuel stabilizer.
I’ve tried a few brands, but the ones that have consistently worked for me keep gas fresh for months and prevent that sour smell. I just pour the right amount into the tank before filling, and I’ve had zero fuel-related problems since.
It’s a small step that saves me from huge headaches later.
