Mechanic in a Bottle (MIAB)

I used to pick up this product every time I went to the U.S. but now I see we have it Home Depots up here in Canada. It's a little pricey (about $10.95) but many people on TY swear by it and say that it is better than Seafoam. They usually keep it near the lawn mowers.

I have had great luck with this product!! Just last week I brought home a brush cutter from the cabin. It had not run in over 10 years! LOL ! I cleaned out the small gas tank and added 2 oz . I pulled it over 15 times to get the full strength product in the carb and then let it sit for 6 hours. Then I just filled it with new premix gas and it fired on the second pull ran rough for 10/15 seconds then cleared out and starts most times with only 1 or 2 pulls. Awesome product. I still use Seafoam in all my gas cans but I feel that product works better over a longer period of time.

I love this stuff. Use it in my lawnmowers, snowblowers, leave blowers ect...... stuff I don't want to tear apart and does a awesome job of getting rough running stuff running great again!

I had not used my chainsaw in about 12 years and moved back to the country so now burning wood again. Filled with fresh fuel from a jug of two year old mixed gas from my outboard, pulled the choke on and pulled it over a few times, Started and cut up about 4 cords of wood. No seafoam but two stroke oil is a preservative of gas. Thanks for the heads up on the MB at home depot will have to check it out when in the Peg.

I also have had great luck with the MIB for stabilizing fuel and keeping all my small engines running. We still get non-ethanol gas at certain pumps so I fill up a 6 gal with that and add the 2-3oz of MIB and it gets used year round. I had one small issue on my pressure washer where it got a little green in the carb but I did get it running and since then its been money with the MIB. Great product that actually seems to work. I never had luck with stabil or seafoam.
