Does the oil on my boat need to be topped off or stabilized for winter storage?

What make, model and year engine are you talking about, PC?<br /><br />I don't think TCW-3 oil needs stabilization.<br /><br />Good luck.

Topping off is always a good idea to avoid condensation.No other steps are necessary.Charlie

patrolcarr, I firmly believe in Sta Bil in all 2 stroke oil. I have never had to tear down a carb that had the additive in the gas. One of my boats sits all winter only to be used in the summer with full tanks and Sta Bil. And no I do not sell the stuff. Omc has a great additive for this same problem. nevjb
