I have read that some people fill tanks and add Stabilizer others empty tanks... Would it not be best since my tanks are only 6 gallons to remove them from the boat completely for the winter? Probably a stupid question but had to ask. Thanks.
On my 15, I try to plan so there is as little gas left as possible, and run stabilizer in it as well so it gets into the fuel lines. I then remove my two tanks from the boat and empty the remainder into the can I use for the lawnmower. I also drain the external fuel filter. This has worked well for me for years (also in midcoast Maine BTW).
On a larger boat with built-in tanks, we just run the tank down as far as is practical (with stabilizer in it) and then refill it with fresh in the spring.
