  • "Ring Free" additive

    What is the reccomended intervals for adding the "ring-free" to the fuel? Does this change if synthetic oil is being used? How ofter should the plugs be changed?

    Yamaha recondmends Ring Free on a constant basis. You didn't mention what engine you have but the oil change intervals are in the owners manual. Most engines are at 100 hours or 6 months.

      Regulator,
      Synthetic or regular petroleum based TCW-3 oil makes no difference to Ring Free.
      Change your plugs once a year - I like to do it in late winter for my "spring get-ready" routine.
      Good luck,

        Use the Ringfree and the Stabil Marine all the time, maybe a bit more when your motor won't be run for several weeks/months. Install a fuel/water seperator also. Good preventive maintenance will pay for itself in repairs, boating satisfaction and confidence on the water.

          Constant treatment using the Ring Free additive = 1 Oz. per 10 Gal of fuel.

                Additives for E10

                I used StarTron with my RingFree until StaBil produced their StaBil Marine product (it is blue), which is specially formulated for E10. Now I use Stabil Marine with my RingFree at every gas addition to the tank. I store my boat outside and during the winter I top off my tank. I have had no problem at start up in the spring. StaBil has some impressive pictures on their web site showing the result of their corrosion studies using Stabil Marine.
