+1 — absolutely. Note that most small engines sit for a significant time between uses for most homes, even small homesteads and farms. My chainsaw gets used hard in Fall and Winter and rarely in Spring and Summer. My 2-stroke string trimmer gets used every week. My 2-stroke snow thrower gets used every 3 weeks during the winter but sits idle for 9 months. Every one of these use applications is awful for ethanol fuel.
I’m dusting off my wood chipper to sell. I only used it about 10 hours and find burning branches is easier.
I haven’t used it for 4 or 5 years and only used non ethanol premium. Three pulls and it started today with that old gas (with PRIG) in it. The one neat trick is it has a fuel shut off valve that you close to let the carb drain out to shut down the engine.
