Cheapest source for fuel treatment

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) Preparation Forum : One Thread

Have been researching sources for PRI-G and PRI-D, which appear to be among the best ways to treat gas and diesel for long-term storage. It seems like the cheapest source is Camping World, which offers one pint for $12.99. Right now shipping is only $1 if you ask for this. They have a lot of stores (none in NE) and sell online at www.campingworld.com. Seems to be an RV sort of place. The usual price for a pint of this is $19-20 plus $6-7 shipping. One pint treats over 200 gallons of fuel. Just ordered some. I've been finding that whenever I want to buy something from a "survival" place or y2k dealer, I can almost always get it for less by buying it from whoever sells it for run-of-the-mill reasons. PS: their # is 800-616-CAMP. For details on PRI products, their website is www.priproducts.com. Sorry for lack of hot links; technologically challenged!

Judy: Briggs and Stratton make about the best fuel stabilizer. There are some others on the market, Sta-Bil being one of them. they can be found at most out supply store and some small engine repair shops. The B/S stabilizer should run about $20.00 a pint or less. The bigger the bottle the less it costs.

Pint of Sta-bil at Wall-Mart under $9.00. I've used for years in RV, parked for 18 months. No problem. Just keep tanks full, helps to keep damp out, also use gas line antifreeze.

thanks, Judy.

I've been look for better sources of PRI (both G and D).

Love it, everyone has their own "best" product. That makes the world go 'round. To each his own.
