Correctamundo... StaBil does me just fine, but by the time I'm on my second tankful of the spring, my air bleeds clog up and I have to clean them out. After that I'm good for the remainder of the driving season. But that dance is now almost like clockwork for me and I've written about the ethanol/air bleed clog subject a zillion times here. I still think doing it my way is better than periodically starting it up and just running it in the garage.
