Has anyone used any of the gasoline additive in their four wheelers?

 

There is only one that you need, SeaFoam. It cleans the entire system, and best of all it also acts as a fuel stabalizer so if you don't ride your ATV for extended periods of time it keeps the gas good. I use it in EVERY engine I have, including two strokes. I never have to drain the carbs on my snowmobile or lawnmower, and each will start right up every year. You can find it almost anywhere, around $5-7 a can. 1 can will last you 4 tanks of gas in your ATV too.

Good luck and welcome to the forum. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I agree......very good stuff!!

 

Sea Foam all u need

 

I have had many problems with our current high priced gas (notice I did not say high quality gas). SeaFoam has kept them all from coming back. Although I use a whole less that Catterman. 4 tanks per can? yikes! I don't know how many tanks because I use it in 4 different machines with different size tanks. I usually get two tanks in each machine per bottle as a guess.

how much is a good amount

 

How about Stab-bil? That's what I just started using. I just put it in my tank for the first time a few days ago. If you have any comments on it let me know.

 

I believe a pint of Seafoam can be used to treat 8-25 gallons.

You can also get the seafoam in a gallon can but it is a special order from a parts store (nearly $70).

You asked so following are the fuel additives that I use:

I use Stab-Bil in all my Gas Powered Cars, Motorcycles, Fork Lift, etc plus in my Log Splitter, Chain Saws, Emergency Generators, etc. I've let one of my Generators go for 10+ years and it started on the first try.

The automotive fuels of today go stale after a month or so and the varnish build-up in the fuel system is pretty much prevented with Stab-Bil.

For my Diesel Powered Trucks I treat my Diesel Fuel with Stanadyne Performance Formula Diesel Fuel Additive. One of my homes is located at 8,000' in the Rockies and I have not had starting or gelling problems even when the temps have dropped to minus 25 degrees F while using Stanadyne Performance Formula Diesel Fuel Additive.

I treat my Jet Fuel powered Airplanes and Helicopters with Prist, a Biocide Additive to combat Microbiological Growths in the Jet Fuel and also to control Fuel Icing. Aviation Avgas that I use in my gas powered Airplanes and Helicopters lasts for about a year before going stale.

Everything mentioned above has treated my extremely well over the years!!
