Thanks Faye! Jaco says Hello!!!

Yup, I remember when the Covid thing started and places were shutdown, I went out and purchased Sta-bil and threw it in my tank because I didn’t want the water separating from the E10 fuel.

I've used that for the last 40 years . When I get my lawnmower gas I put some in the jug. I put a capful in every tank of gas I run thru my roadking. Dump a little in my cars and trucks also. I believe in it.

Simple solution for storage is ethanol free fuel with Stabil

Your energy contagious Faye.

Great video Faye - thanks for using our products! Keep that fuel fresh during storage! 👍

When my dad had a motorcycle shop, he used something called TankPrep. It was a great product that safely coated the inside of the tank.

You're a breath of fresh air Faye

Marine boat mechanics deal with skunky fuel constantly. Water + ethanol gas = bad things. Stabil is the gold standard. Every year in lawn tractor and snowblower. Getting rid of stale gas is like dealing with radioactive waste.

Really good job and tutorial on the tanks Faye. Your video's wouldn't be the same without your chickadees at the end. Thank you for sharing your journey. Peace ✌

Tanks for the video Faye 😀

I've used just a little bit of 2 stroke oil in my tanks and sloshing it all around to coat the metal with the oil. It doesn't hurt anything and mixes with the gas when you are ready to install it. If anything it's beneficial for a new engine as a top end lubricant for breaking it in. And you won't have to worry about gasoline going bad nor anything sparking near it when it's stored indoors nor any fumes which could explode. Basically any type of 2 stroke oil a couple cap fulls is all it takes and it will never develop any rust. The whole purpose of fogging a 2 stroke at the end of a season in the north is to coat everything internally with a heavier layer of oil to protect your engine parts from condensation over the winter or temp swings. This is the best and safest way to go, and you aren't stuck with fuel which may or may not be usable by the time your ready to run the engine and have to deal with the process of getting rid of the old gas. Just an FYI from an old timer. 😉👍

Seafoam fuel treatment has stabilizer in it also. I left a truck parked in the weeds for 1 1/2 yrs , charged the battery and it fired right up.

I like the old Jerry Cans. I managed to save 18 month old fuel with fuel injector cleaner. About 10 gallons with 350ml of cleaner. Tested with no water separation.

Love the channel. Great attention to detail. I build pressure vessels for a living. Any time we store a vessel we purge it with nitrogen. It might be a good alternative since service centers usually carry nitrogen for tires.

Faye just my own experience with my 67 Beaumont that set for 2 and 1/2 years with a full tank of 94 proof Chevron gas with techron and carburetor ( the best engine builder in British Columbia as far as I'm concerned, major backup) I swear by him. Brand new 461 bbc 500 hrs 550 trq and we found no varnish no old gas smell and the car ran like a champ! I have had friends that use lesser of gas and had nothing but problems with sitting cars. I will not use anything less! Lesson learned in real life

Nice to know those gaskets are still available! Anyhoo, thanks for taking the time and putting in the effort to make these videos. They're helpful.

I was told of you by a guy who considers me to be a ma70 addict ,he said your a tech that I should check out. Where I live there are no cars to buy that are running or affordable so I buy broken cars and piece them together with parts from other 30 yr old broken cars. I have owned 5 and Im working on my third restoration now, I started it when I retired. All my cars are hard tops 7 mgte, r154, I guess if your gonna be committed to doing something try to make it worth your time. I order parts from sellers all over the world but because of my location freight kills a lot my working capital but thats the cost of living on Maui. Keep up the good work !

Great to know that my family and I have been storing our cars properly for years. We use pretty much the same process! You really can't go wrong with STA-BIL. It's pretty amazing stuff. I realized just now that we never put STA-BIL in our PT Cruisers, but the 2.4L motors in those things are bulletproof. They'll run no matter what happens to them. Great job as always and uh.. TANKS a lot for the great video! *badum tish*

I found your channel while I was in trade school, and I am thoroughly (and devoutly) staying tuned to your channel and videos! Thank you for existing, Faye! Keep up the good work!

Hello, I learn a lot from your videos! Thank you! But yesterday was my first experience that my Granny stall after passing to a bit of water, after stalling it still start the engine but lack of power about 1-3 minutes. Ignition coil, spark plugs are protected no sign of any splash of water. 5vz-fe engine. Thanks for your answer Faye!

Faye making Automotive repairs look easy and cool 😁

Throw some desiccant packs in the dry tanks.

I had to cut my alfa romeo spider fuel tank open, wire it down and then weld it back together......

Are you sure you didn’t grow up in the 70’s? Because, you would have fit right in with us.👍🏻

I watch a mower mechanic / someone I bet is generally handy and he did like 14 months of fuel treatment experiment. shocked the hell out of me Taryl fixes all is the channel name he did monthly start ups of every motor and treatment

I have to pay over $15ga for custom “Ethanol Free” gas here in California. To try and extend the life of my small gas motors and carbs. It’s brutal what they have done here.

The QT on 281 in Springbranch near the river has ETOH free gas, That is what I use for storage stuff plus stable. love the chicks

😍👍 Although I've never had a fuel problem with my boat, it's garage stored during the winter months I believe I might try out some STA-BIL

If I was storing it for a long time, I would just dump a bottle of 2 stroke oil in it. Tip it around and coat everything. Then when I need it, put some gas in there to clean it out. Pump out that gas and use it for a chainsaw/boat/lawn equip.

Good content!

Thank you Faye

Fascinating.

2.5 gal and shake once a week will work. Tank it to the bank!

There's a Briggs & Stratton fuel stabilizer that's good for two years, and they have one that's good for three years.

Thanks!

Shout out from Dallas Texas! Love ya Faye! Keep rockin it 💪❤

Hey Faye 👋, thanks for sharing. Those tanks were redone nice. Thanks for sharing 👋. Have a great weekend 👋

Hey Faye, that should do the trick the tanks look really nice big fan of Toyota parts always so impressed with the way they package and present them so cool all that still available. Supra forever!!🐔🐔🐔👍

Nice.

And now we know. Great 👍 👌 👍 job.

Perhaps hardwire the pumps and run a loop hose & keep them primed up from time 2 time. ☝️🤟👽🎬

I'm just curious why you wouldn't just fog the tank with oil or pour in something like marvel mystery oil and coat the inside without any fuel in it at all?

Girl power love your channel keep the videos coming!!!

Watching I remembered how awful the EPA approved gas cans are. Especially if a person has arthritis in their hands. Tanks look great. Great chicken feed.

Its all still available because Toyota used those parts for a wide variety of vehicles. The Japanese brands truly believe in parts standardization. US and European manufacturers tend to redesign stuff to fit the need of the moment. Which also results parts scarcity. So in 100 years, there will still be Toyotas on the road, but only current classic American cars will still be on the roads.

thanks for the tips! your girls are so adorable. makes me want chickens again :) your knife looks rad!

Hi Faye Might consider a tank liner product like redcote or one of the other gelcote products and no longer an issue as you can store them dry and no rust

Should I run this stuff sta bid fuel stabilizer when storing my beetle for the winter?

those are some of the top 5 mk3 supra tanks I have seen. great finds

Faye Bae All Day!

Are they egg layers? How many do you get per week?

would you mind linking down the vid to the EGR gasket replacement and EGR plug if you have made videos on those

How do you feel about fogging your engine for storage? I can say that engine fogger works well for fuel storage tanks. We usually fog 55 gallon drum’s when we empty them and are waiting for refill delivered

Can you just fill the tanks with isobutane and cap it off to keep oxygen from getting in? Kinda like turning a spray can upside down and straying inside idk ..

I usually just run my small engines out of gas for the storage time. Whatever it may be. But I am thinking that maybe it is best to get some stabil kinda stuff in the last gas that remains in there 🤔 Like just Whatever is left in the lines or carb bowl. Faye is the best 👌 👍 😍

I need a hookup on a Supra tank badly...

Hey Faye, I am looking to get an ASE but not sure which one to get 1: I've done brakes on my own car via KZfaq (subaruWRX) 2: Oil changes 3: Spark plugs 4: changed exhaust from the cat (planning on doing the up-pipe and down-pipe from the turbo later.) 5: anything tire related like repairs and replacements and anything TPMS. What do you recommend as an ASE cert?

Thanks mate 😎🍺👍🇦🇺

I like your content

Hey Faye...fellow Supra addict (kevinp_kpd) here. Great video on a topic not covered much. Who did your fuel tank resto? I’d love to have a sending unit that clean! 😬 I’m need to redo mine. LoL

In a situation like that with fuel storage i like to use Ethanol free, but then again maybe it isnt available everywhere.

Errmergerd serr merrch ferrrn! 👌

Can also coat them in diesel fuel

me custa la forma como hase el trabajo 😃🤔

Don’t use stabil I’ve had great success with startron. Been using it for over 15 years.

How many cars do you have anyway? 😉😮😂

Faye tank Linder better 35.00 can easy too do .

Why not put the STA-BIL in the gas can first then pump the gas into it to get a good mix?

Hi ❤ Faye ❤ 😊😍

How did you order the part if you didn’t even know what it was?

Filling them with fuel isn't the best for storage, any gas with an ethanol blend will absorb moisture over time, better off leaving them empty and capped off.

Great. I’ve refreshed a Toyota diesel fuel tank and was amazed how well designed it was. The Supra ones seem to share many of the same parts and features including the pickup well, seals, vents and senders etc like for like. regardless of fuel type. I’d have done a sanity check of the pickup unit and installed a new plastic filter basket on that, plus a test of the gauge sender unit and warning light circuitry before using the new gaskets, but maybe you’ve already done this. I see you’re using the silicone caps / bungs things. I saw ‘Timmy the Toolman’ (kzfaq.info) using these and got a comprehensive set (~80 pieces) for my Toyota project and they are really, really great. While I’ve nothing against your approach to put petrol and storage solution in but I wonder if you’d have been better using a zero ethanol fuel? Here, you can get this for use in small agriculture / plant petrol engines that are used infrequently. It’s more expensive that regular petrol but it’s cost effective when compared to servicing small engines due to ethanol content. A cheap option for storing fuel tanks is to add just a few cups of diesel and swill this about well. Over time it’ll build up a vapour in the tank that’s very effective against corrosion plus when you come to start the car after rebuild you can do this from a separate supply tank with the fuel returning to the main, or you can drain the small amount of diesel in lots of ways. A small amount of diesel in petrol won’t make any difference. Our road tankers carry one fuel then the other and are not cleaned thoroughly when changing over. Just my 2p. Great to see your work and enthusiasm!

I'm only here for the hen's party

I like to inspect gas tanks while smoking a cigarette.....

I am first!

Modern fuel is garbage and I hate it. It has a shelf life of around 60 days maybe. My old cars are parked every winter and I’ve used Sta-bil for years. It’s never let me down.
