Thank you for your inquiry. Shell V-Power still does not contain Ethanol.

9.9 hp yup.
They used to tell us to leave tank full all winter to avoid condensation but no longer(I still do). Fuel stabilizer works really well. Same as snowmobiles. I realize some people have had problems...guess I've been lucky.

Lol you're not lucky, you're doing it right. Fuel stabilizer is the way to go when storing a car, boat, snowmobile, ATV, etc.
