I have used it in my snow blower in the summer and lawn mower in the winter. I
used it several years ago in the Healey but since I start her up every 2 to 3
weeks and move her to change the load on the wire wheels and tires I have not
done so in a while. How would one know if it works? I found no difference. But
its cheap insurance. We have "oxygenated fuel" up here from Oct on 'till
spring so I top the Healey in the fall and refill when regular fuel becomes
available.
