I am no chemist, but I can tell you this stuff works for long term ethanol gasoline storage. 99.9% of the gas around me (and in Ohio in general) is 10% ethanol, and has been for at least 10 years. I don't have time to try to search out "Pure Gas" and test it. I am going to be using the same ethanol gas everyone else is. Anyways, since 2014, I have used PRI-G and had zero issues. Heck, sometimes my standby generator's fuel gets to be OVER 3 years old because it is rarely used (fingers crossed) and I just add an ounce of this treatment every 6 months or so to it and shake the tank up. No problems. A very popular small engine Youtuber made a video about PRI-G a few weeks back causing a huge demand and flat-out price gouging. I am just surprised it has flown under the radar for so long. Anyways, it is great stuff and it goes a long way.

This stuff is a lifesaver! I used to have problems with my lawnmower after storing it for any length of time, but not anymore. A little bit of this in the fuel can before adding it to the mower, weedeater, or leaf blower keeps it fresh and prevents gumming. Now my yard equipment starts right up every time 1st or second pull. I highly recommend this fuel stabilizer to anyone who wants to avoid engine trouble. It's a great price for how many gallons it can treat and it'll save you a lot of money in the long run. I don't know if there is a shelf life on the product itself, but I've been using this stuff for over a year and haven't had any issues. And it's now on Amazon!Only thing to add - look if you have EXTREMELY old fuel WITH a lot of water in it then you'd be better off draining the tank. Will this stuff work? Possibly, but not on something like a weedeater or chainsaw etc. So my advice is to treat the fuel before you put it in your machine and store the leftover fuel in a relatively stable temperature variation. They still make metal fuel cans and those are best for long term storage with this added.

I have been using PRI G and PRI D for 20 years .I would store gasoline 275 gallons in 55 gallon drums just in case!. "PREPPER".I would dose the gas when put in the drums and then once a year when I remembered. After 10 years I was going to move so I used my stored gas in the moving truck and all our vehicles to be rid of the stored fuel.Fuel ran LIKE NEW. To this day I use PRI G in anything that I store with Fuel in it and sometimes just because it makes modern crappy fuel run better, cleaner and with better mileage.This product was initially for the refiners and distributers for their fuel holding tanks,ships and fuel barges Tso the fuel stayed fresh and and in spec.I just used this product in two 5 gallon cans of fuel I had laying around for the last 6 years. Running this fuel in my Tahoe now and It runs great.This is the Best Fuel restorer and fuel storage product I have ever used in my life.It just works!. This product wont un gum a fuel bowl and jets if left with untreated fuel because its not magic.

I've had a few engines in my life and I always had fuel problems before I started using PRI products. Some of those problems were extremely expensive to solve - replacing high-pressure fuel pumps, cleaning tanks, sensors, new filtration systems... low quality fuel will destroy whatever it touches. Since I started using PRI products (PRI-D for diesel and PRI-G for gasoline) I have not had a single fuel issue. This stuff is worth it's weight in gold. You can look up tests by PRI and others, but there is a reason why industrial customers buy this stuff in 55-gallon barrels.I have used gasoline that has sat for over a year with absolutely no issues and would have total confidence in using it in even older gasoline. PRI themselves claims you can use it on 10-13 year old fuel.Now - obviously people love this stuff, but there's still a bit of fiction out there about what it can do. What's fact and what's fiction? Fact: it has an infinite shelf life when sealed, restores degraded fuels, is excellent at preventing biofouling, carbon deposits in the engine, and improves emissions. Over-dosing is not harmful, although should be avoided long term. What is fiction? For starters, it's not an octane booster: straight from PRI, "PRI-G is not an Octane booster. PRI-G will only increase Octane marginally. PRI-G will not increase combustion efficiency." The claims of increasing mileage and not increasing combustion efficiency may sound contradictory, but it can still save gas in several ways - for example, cleaning engine components and preventing phase separation of water and fuel in ethanol-blended fuel, preventing knock and pre-ignition, lubricating the engine to reduce friction, improving vaporization of fuel etc. Also fiction is that you have to mix it in the tank: PRI themselves claim that simply adding it before adding your fuel is enough.
