Avoid using any marine fuel system treatment product that contains alcohol.

Because boat fuel systems are constantly being challenged to prevent water absorption into the fuel system, numerous "Gas Treatment Products" marketed to the marine industry ALSO contain alcohol. (Becuase alcohol has such amazing hygroscopic water-absorbing capabilities.)

Fuel System "Cleansers" and "Rust Removers" also often also alcohol based products.

Marine engines require intense lubrication and prevention of rust. Most oil-based marine lubricants do not contain alcohol - Lubricats and fuel conditioners (that do not contain alcohol or butanes) can offer extra support when using ethanol blend fuels.

Ethanol alcohol present in E10 fuel, is a drying agent - Lubricants, conditioners and greasers counteract some of the negative effects of alcohol and help to prevent drying out and cracking of boat engine parts and hoses.

Evinrude BRP 2 + 4 fuel conditioner is an excellent product to use in all boat engines.

More information on ethanol E10 fuel use:

Important Info: Several states, still do not require the gas stations are to disclose that ethanol was added to the gas pump!

Protect your engine by checking alcohol presence and content with a portable Ethanol Fuel Test Kit.

E10, which contains levels of 10% or lower alcohol, is safe for most engines -But ethanol can accidentally be blended into the gas at the pump at dangerously high levels. Using gas with over 10 % alcohol will damage most engines and cause major engine performance problems.

E10 contains 10% ethanol alcohol and E85 contains 85% ethanol alcohol. Ethanol is hygroscopic (will absorb water), and is an excellent solvent (dissolves materials).

The shelf life for ethanol blend Fuel is only 90-100 days. Due to ethanol's affinity for water, phase separation and water contamination occurs quickly.

Compared to conventional gasoline, ethanol blend fuels can absorb up to 50 times more water.

Ethanol Fuel - What are the dangers?

Simply put, ethanol is an excellent SOLVENT, CLEANSER, DRYING AGENT and unlike MTBE, ethanol gas will ABSORB WATER. Ethanol easily and quickly dissolves resins, rust, dirt etc. that creates a sludge that coats and travels through the engine, causing engine stalling and complications, including clogged fuel filters, carburetor jets and injectors.

See Ethanol dangers. And the disadvantages of ethanol blend fuel.

Read "Understanding Affects of High Alcohol Fuel % Content on Engines".

The following information is guidelines only, engine affects from alcohol fuels will vary. Always follow equipment's fuel recommendations and review your owner's manual and warranty statements for fuel requirements.

An Alcohol Fuel Test Kit will give you the reliable results you need

to determine if gas at the pump and/or in your gas tank is safe for marine boat engine use.

Website contents cannot be copied or reproduced without permission. Contact Us.

Directions For Use:

Alcohol fuel content should be tested before purchase or use, and at regular scheduled intervals (daily, weekly, monthly etc.).

To perform a test, simply mix small amounts of water and fuel at markings indicated on test tube included.

Shake to mix the contents. Wait a few minutes until settled. An increase in the amount of water on the gauge indicates that alcohol is present in the fuel.

The gauge will also indicate the exact percentage of alcohol from 0 to 30%. VIEW Test Kit Instructions.

- Fuel Tips for Boaters -

1. Whenever possible avoid buying gas that contains ethanol (E10) since ethanol attracts and absorbs water into gas tank.

Obviously it's impossible to avoid water (ocean, humidity) in marine environment.

2. When using E10 gas, most marine manufacturers now recommend leaving tank empty for prolonged storage.

3. Never leave engine stored with 95% E10 fuel in tank - Ethanol can and will absorb greater than 5% water into tank over prolonged period.

4. When absolutely necessary to leave fuel in tank for over a month, use Quik-Check solution to monitor amount of water that is absorbed.

5. Be aware that no additive exists that will prevent water absorption into E10 gas - Some simply break-down the water molecules to delay onset of phase separation.

This results in lean fuel due to excess water - which may cause damage to engine in the long term.

6. Avoid all additives that contain primary alcohols - Quik-Check can also be used to check additives for alcohol/water.

7. Install a water separator filter in engine - Check often for clogging or fuel restriction.

8. Check your owner's manual fuel recommendations- Many marine engines prohibit use of gas containing alcohol...
