The blue "marine" Sta-Bil is much superior to the normal red. I add the blue to every can of gasoline I buy for the small engines.
I neglected to start my Champion generator for over 2 years. Pulled it out, expecting the worst. Started first pull.
I believe in the blue Sta-Bil.

That is what I use after having an issue with the original Stabil about 4 years ago but the fuel was a year old and the EU1000's do have very tiny jets. I tried to use Sea Foam to correct the problem but it did not help at all. The original red Stabil was reformulated to deal with the ethanol issue shortly after that but I have continued using the blue stuff for all of my small engines and my 70 Mustang. I don't leave fuel in my generators for more than a couple of months any more.
