Add it to as much gas as you can (a 5 gallon can would be nice if
possible) OR... if you plan to use your boat in the next couple
weeks... wait until you use it... a couple weeks won't matter.. Then,
as the other poster said... let it mix and then run the engine to get
the stab in the carb or injectors... BTW... if the tanks are dual ported
for return fuel (Fuel injected), running the engine will help mix it.

Kinda late to be adding stabilizer now, isn't it? You can add to a full
tank, as long as you can agitate enough to mix it in. Tow the boat
around for a while . If it's a slip boat, the wave action should do it.
After you estimate the stab is mixed in, run the engine to distribute it
through the system.

If I forgot to add fuel stablizer in my fuel tank, can i go back and
add it to the tank after the gas is already in the tank?
Is there a right or wrong way to add stablizer after the fact? Can I
add the stabilzer to a little gass and put it in the tank? Will it mix
up properly?
How long will it take for the fuel to go bad and turn to varnish in
the carb? I usually add stabilizer to all my fuel, I guess i had a
brain gap that day.
Thanks for the help with this matter....tcoop
