Preping gas system for winter.

[Stretch56]

1986 1200. What works best, draining everything, Stabil, or Seafoam. I have heard good thing about Seafoam but have never used it. Runs good now, don't really want carb problems next spring.

I've NEVER had luck draining everything. I've used Sta-bil every year with no problems in everything - snowblower, lawn tractor, motorcycle. Seafoam works just as well, and seeing as I'm now out of Sta-bil and always have lots of Seafoam around, I'll likely just use that from here on in.

I am a real proponent of Seafoam, as are many others. I have cured many carb problems on many vehicles just with a good dose of it in the tank. I regularly use half a can of it in a full tank of gas every spring just to clean things out.

It's good in the oil, too - have a look a this:
