Hello everyone, apologies if this has been asked before, Has anyone used Aspen long life fuel ? I’ve only just heard about it. It claims 5 years life ! It would be helpful in my generator which I only use now and again and has become a chore draining the petrol when I’ve finished with it and it not starting so good the next time because you have to get the petrol through !!.
 
Without going to my garage and checking name on my bottle it’s old fashioned fuel so there is no bio fuel in it. No snot in the carb after wintering over etc. I got it to flush my fuel line/ carb on garden strimmer etc.
 
When you say flush out your fuel lines why ?, I thought that’s the idea of using it so you can leave it in ???
 
There are a few additives on the market namely Millers, Castrol Valvemaster and a Briggs and Stratton one that I've used when laying the vans up for winter. Seems to work well. Not heard of the Aspen fuel before.
 
Ah yes. I empty tank and put a little Aspen in and let it run for a bit to flush the E5, now E10I decided to do this rather than filling the tank up as it’s quite expensive stuff.

My local garden machinery shop sells it. 4 stroke and 2 stroke. Funnily enough they specialise in cordless equipment
 
I’ve brought the Briggs n Stratton fuel fit and use it but still don’t want to leave any fuel in things for any length of time, yes the Aspen is more expensive but if it’s as good as they say we won’t have to worry about any dregs left in the tank,pipes or carb , always nice to get some feedback from someone that’s used it
 
I bought it last year but I’ve not started them up since but I’m hoping that if it is “real” petrol then there shouldn’t be a problem stale fuel wise.
