Amazon.com has it and it's actually a little cheaper (before shipping) than I'm getting it for locally.

http://www.amazon.com/Star-brite-Enz...3695925&sr=8-2

It's available in not only multiple size bottles, but multiple concentrations as well, so pay attention to what you're buying/ordering. Some are more economical than others. I've been buying an 8 oz. bottle of the super concentrate (treats 128 gallons of gas) for my vehicles but I buy the not-so-concentrated 8 oz. bottle treats 48 gallons of gas for my yard equipment/etc. as it's just easier to measure the proper amount into 1, 2.5 and 5 gallon cans.

My local Ace Hardware has larger bottles (16 & 32 oz.) as well as the 8 oz., but their prices are on the high side, so there is no advantage to the larger bottles there at least...

If you are having problems finding the Star Bright product Mercury Marine’s Quickare works just as good. I used to sell it and use it in customer’s boats but had completely forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder guys.

http://www.mercurymarine.com/parts-a...l-care-system/





Besides keeping fuel fresh between fill-ups, Quickare helps prevent problems associated with ethanol-blended fuel, such as corrosion, rust, oxidation, gum and varnish build-up and phase separation. Most of today's gasoline can begin to break down and oxidize within weeks, leaving behind deposits that hinder an engine's performance and fuel economy. Mercury's fuel treatment, Quickare, is designed to be used with every fill-up.

Features:
  • Every fill-up fuel treatment
  • 12 Fluid Ounce Bottle
  • Treats 120 gallons of fuel
  • Maximize engine performance with all grades of gasoline
  • Help corrosion, gum and varnish build-up and phase separation associated with ethanol-blended fuel
  • Help control moisture and corrosion problems with non-ethanol fuel
  • Clean up existing varnish and gum deposits from fuel lines, tanks, carburetors, injectors, intake valves and spark plugs
Mercury Marine's simple, easy-to-follow fuel care system takes the guesswork out of choosing the right fuel additive for your boat engine. Easy-to-read, numbered labels describe when each product should be used, eliminating unnecessary confusion.
Quickare, Quickleen and Quickstor fuel additives are essential in helping keep your engine running at its peak. By regularly using these fuel care products, your engine may start easier, idle smoother and hit the hole shot quicker. Other benefits include extended spark plug life and less stalling from cold engine starts. All three of Mercury's fuel care products can be used in any 2-cycle or 4-cycle gasoline engine with any octane grade, including ethanol-blended. They are also safe for catalyzed engines.

Unless this product can cure someone of gout, I am very dubious of the rather long-winded write-up singing its praises.

I can't tell you that I particularly care if you're dubious of it or not... I wrote it up, and only after using it for four complete tanks, and simply for the benefit of people here.. If I thought it was crap, I wouldn't have opened my jawls, that is, unless someone else came along and did what I just did, and I could counter it with my personal experience.

Sharing an opinion is fine, but typing up a line or two, without any experience with it, and simply to combat something someone is saying for your own amusement is crap.. if you've used it and haven't seen any benefit, that's one thing- but what you've contributed is almost an affront, and is bringing my integrity into question..

in that vane, I suggest you go eff yourself....

Does your mother know you talk like that, you Dirty Birdy??? I'm shocked...SHOCKED that a southern gentleman would respond in such a horrific manner!

Then again, I'm equally impressed BUT -- If I could "eff myself", do you really think I would be here?

this hints to one of the most fundamental truths ever discovered during my elementary school years.. when the science teacher suggested we 'evolved' in the Darwin sense, I quickly thought of our family pet.. and loudly and abruptly disrupted the class..

it's simple... Man would NEVER have evolved past the 'phase' of self oral gratification.. it just ain't a possibility.. no matter how this ranks other posters, deep inside their hearts and in that place where they shove things they wouldn't share with anyone, they know this to be true.. they know that if Darwin's reckonings held merit, they would be in a tight little ball, laying in some dug out or cave, doing what they could do, for at least 40% of the day, with another 40% for relaxing/sleeping, and 20% in search of beer...

darwin? BLAH.. no way...

Which ignores the fact that one who would do so would also be easy pickin's for the saber tooth cat, who would be attracted to that sound the way bobcats and coyotes of today are attracted to the sound of a screaming rabbit.

So... you figured at some age less than 12 that if you could lick yourself you'd do nothing else for the rest of your life? I'm glad we don't share a cubicle!
