There are at least two ways fuels are stabilized. The most common method is to seal the fuel from the air, so that volatility of the fuel deteriorates slower than without being sealed from the air.
There are several products on the market that do this, however when the fuel/air seal is broken, it does not re-seal, and rapid deterioration occurs. Like when you tow the unit around, move the gas cans or when the elements rock a unit that is sitting, unused.
Fuel manufacturers will tell you that their fuels begin to deteriorate about 30 days after it is formulated. Remember most fuels come through a pipeline to consumers quickly and are consumed, there are times when you are paying high prices for fuel that has already begun to deteriorate because it has been in the system.
Sea Foam patented formula is quite unique in its method of fuel stabilization, but we are not the only product that uses a similar method. Those products use various chemical components, where Sea Foam is oil, which we believe to be safer for a fuel system and its component parts, plus Sea Foam is multi use!
Sea Foam is a combination of 3 separate refined oil products, mixed specifically to do cleaning of fuel and oil residue (including carbon cleaning), moisture drying, add lubricity, and stabilize fuel (any brand, grade, including ethanol and diesel).
Sea Foam adds volatility to fuel, and slows down the deterioration process, while still drying moisture, lubricating, and cleaning.
At one ounce per gallon of fuel (diesel or gasoline), or 2 ounces per gallon of fuel/oil mixture, Sea Foam keeps fuel from falling into the non volatile range for up to 2 years when used as above. More is not necessarily better, but as a fuel injector cleaner, professional technicians using specialized equipment use Sea Foam at a gas/Sea Foam ratio of 1 to 1 (50% gas, 50% Sea Foam).
Sea Foam has had reports of much longer successes from consumers. Fuels should be thoughtfully (using careful thought processes) stored in a sealed container or fuel system, in conditions that will not cause rapid decreases in volatility or excessive moisture contamination, such as out of direct sunlight.
Sea Foam also highly recommends that when Sea Foam is applied to a fuel system, that that system (engine) be run long enough to allow the entire system to be purged with the Sea Foam/fuel mixture, to make sure the entire system is protected. Sea Foam will not migrate up a fuel system, the fuel has to move!
Sea Foam Motor treatment # SF-16 (16 ounce container) is also available in One Gallon containers as # SF-128, and 55 gallon drums as # SF-55 for fleets and large consumers. Availability in certain markets is limited on one gallon cans because Sea Foam just began marketing this container in early 2006.
Sea Foam is also available in a SPRAY (same product as Sea Foam, just in a spray) for cleaning, lubricating, penetrating, anything you can do with Sea Foam,and FOGGING. It is sold by the name Sea Foam DEEP CREEP # DC-14, and is available through most suppliers that handle Sea Foam Products. Talk about a really neat product, wait till you try it!
And don't forget Sea Foam BUGS B GONE, 100% water based SOAP for cleaning organic residue such as bugs, molds, mildew, THE SCUMMY LINE ON YOUR BOAT, without surface damage! (and lots more!)
Thank you for your question, hope this helps.
