Let’s think back to early winter of 2024… Did you properly winterize your boat? Winterizing a boat is much more than just running antifreeze through your engines and water systems. It should also include treating your fuel tank and ensuring it is FULL of non-ethanol based fuel.
It’s is imperative that your fuel system have the right additives and either be completely full or completely empty.
Our technicians have drained well over 500 gallons of gasoline this month alone, out of new customers boats. The tanks are full of water, stale fuel, and varnish…
What many people don’t know is that fuel tanks breathe and as they breathe, they tanks are ingesting moisture from the air. Once that moisture is in the tank, it has no where to go which results in water contamination that will not allow your engine to run properly. Mix ethanol into the equation and you are in for disaster on your first trip of the season.
