    I add 2 grams of BHT (food grade butylated hydroxytoluene) anti-oxidant per 5 gallons ethanol-free mogas anytime I don't immediately use the fuel. BHT is readily available on eBay (much cheaper than Sta-bil and possibly the same stuff, but without all the petroleum distillates that I don't want). BHT dissolves instantly in mogas. This is about 2 grams per 2700 gm of fuel, or 0.07%, or about 0.7 ppt. Not very much! Possibly not even enough anti-oxidant for all applications. My goal is to mitigate the formation of gums or gummy deposits in the carbs. Many years ago I used small amounts of BHT for the same purpose in a hydrocarbon-based rocket fuel for the US Air Force. stevenwpitt(at)me.com wrote: > I know it may be a bit late this season but what do owners use to stabilise their fuel during the winter? > I know of Sta-bil in the USA for motor vehicles but not sure what to use on my Rotax 912S here in the UK. > Thanks in anticipation. > Steve Pitt > G-SMDH > > Sent from my iPad -------- N914TX Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=500716#500716

    Since I am no longer able to fly, I am forced to sell my Europa XS Monowheel kit. See the attachment for brief details and email me if interested. I will provide phone number to interested party so we can discuss more build details and price. Vaughn Teegarden
