Your mind tells you the additive is suppose to help and you get tricked into thinking it really does help. Carb cleaner if your carb is dirty or a stabilizer if you are going to store gasoline for 3 years or more. Gasoline will normally stay fresh for at least 2 years given it is kept cool and dry.

Use either a race gas or tulene......tulene has an octane of 114 and is basically an automotive paint thinner.....when I worked in a body shop we would buy it in 55 gal drums to clean our paint guns and equipement,back then,about a dollar a gallon in bulk.......
I mixed it with 93 octane for my race car for years,never had any problems.......
