Gasoline Stabilizer (AST)
It is difficult to drain all of the fuel from equipment
before storage, and doing so would expose the system to
other problems, including the formation of rust and
corrosion on the bare metal in the tank and fuel system
and the drying and cracking of gaskets and seals. Some
fuels are pre-treated with oxidation inhibitors that
allow them to be stored for short periods without
forming excessive deposits, while other fuels have no
inhibitors at all.AMSOIL
Gasoline Stabilizer (AST) reduces the oxidation process
that occurs when fuel is stored for extended periods,
improving performance, extending equipment life and
decreasing maintenance expenses.

Two- and four-stroke
recreational vehicles, hand-held power equipment, small
engines, construction and farm equipment are commonly
operated seasonally or infrequently, then stored for
long periods of time. During these periods of
inactivity, and as a result of fluctuations in ambient
temperatures, water vapor can form condensate within the
engine. When this condensate comes into direct contact
with steel and iron components, it forms surface
corrosion on cylinder liners, piston rings,
anti-friction bearings and steel/iron contact surfaces
on rotational seals. Long periods of storage can also
dry out cylinders, often resulting in permanent damage
when the equipment is taken out of storage and dry
started. In addition, fuel within stored equipment tends
to oxidize and form varnish and sludge deposits that
clog injectors, fuel lines and carburetors, stick floats
and cause poor engine performance, starting problems,
increased maintenance expenses and decreased equipment
life.
