I guess it's been around awhile...I haven't heard of it before 'cause I live under a rock...I found it as I was looking for small engine fuel solutions...So far, the best I've found is SEF ( small engine fuel ) But at around $7 a quart I won't be using that stuff in my car...

But back to StarTron...Anyone using it...?

It's claims are as follows: Makes engines start easily and run smoothly...removes & prevents gum, varnish and carbon...Stabilizes fuel; rejuvenates old fuel ( yeah, right )...Okay here's what grabs me..."Helps" prevent phase separation by dispersing water throughout fuel as submicron-sized droplets that are safely eliminated while the engine operates...

Can't help but wonder if it's just another scheme to separate me from my money...

...Cures & Prevents Ethanol Fuel Problems...Also says it improves gas mileage...

I did read some interesting reviews on it last night from marine/boater types...Some thought it might be a "notch" above "Stabl", but sounded a little inconclusive to me...

Kevin, just mixed-up a batch of Stabilize-it-all, add "some" to your gas and/or oil. Also great to rub on sore backs and joints, treats gout and athletes foot. Also good in fish and turkey frier's. Sent cash only to: wink

Really though, it probably does not hurt anything to use.

I read somewhere that gas line anti freeze will prevent phase separation since that's what it does, absorb water in the gas.
