    Guys,
    What do you do with outboard petrol over Winter? I find it fouls the carb and motor needs a clean & possible service in the new season? Is this just me?

    I put in a bit of petrol stabilizer in the tank and run the engine for a few min's till the carb bowl fills up. This will keep the petrol fresh and stop the build up of varnish and bacteria.:)

    Fergal,
    Do you put the stabalizer in at the end of the season or the beginning of the season?

    At the end, but you can also use it to clean up your carbs at any time.:)
