Fitch Fuel Catalyst

I think a few people have dropped them in. I tried to get some info last year and I think a few people have said they had them. I dropped it in my tank last year. I did it at the same time I put twin pipes on and re-jetted. I got as good of mileage as before if not a little better and it runs better/stronger. Don't know if it was the fitch, the pipes or both. I haven't started it yet this year so I don't know how it works with "treating/preserving" the fuel.
 
The Fuel Fitch

This is an awsome product. I read the article in Snow Tech ( don't remember the issue). They said it was one of the best products to come out that year. I put one in my 01 SRX. It now starts every time on two pulls, and I've had trouble starting from day 1. I then put the other one in my 99 V-Max 1200 motorcycle. The engine has a better throttle response and runs cleaner. I'm a believer. Brad :2strokes:
 
I've been reading and researching these things for a while now - I talked in some length to the salesman at the Novi show and here is my final thoughts - it appears that as long as you put these in a vehicle that you are using on a continuous basis, they seem to keep the fuel fresh and energized so to speak - however, (and I have no person experience with these) when you put them in a vehicle that is not used for an extended period, they will not keep ethynol laced fuels stabil - whatever they are composed of seems to work on petrolium based part of the fuel - even the salesman at the Novi show would not commit to them working on ethynol - he sort of beat around the bush on the issue - couple of other people I know have used them said that they did not stabilize the fuel that had set over a period of time and that contained ethynol - if they did that, I would buy them in a heart beat
 
That is the conclusion I'm drawing - like I said, I don't have any personal experience with them - if I bought them, I would want them for long term storage of ethynol laced fuel because stabil is not effective on ethynol fuel either - I guess the bottom line is I'm not convinced they work for that.
 
I use them in my sled and so does my dad. They work good. I dont use that ethanol garbage gas anways so it keeps my gas freah during storage. Sorry, iv seen too many meltdowns due to ethanol fuel...
 
We don't have a choice unless we buy race gas - in fact, they are or have passed legislation that all fuel sold here will have 10% ethanol - worst thing that ever happend to a two stroke motor!
 
Umm....where are you buying your gas because I visit alot of stations that aren't 10% ethanol. They have to state that on the pump. So either the station isn't comply-ing with hte law or the "law" isn't the case. I know typically in winter we usually have a change in the additives to alter the properties (oxygenated, etc.) I've been wrong before though.
 
I thought that too until just a couple of months ago I found out that they don't have to post that on the pump any longer. I thought I was buying ethanol free fuel then found out otherwise. The 10% requirement was in legislator last year sometime and never heard for sure if it passed, but I'm sure it will. Ethanol producers are spending alot of money lobbying for it. I think there are two or three ethanol plants going up in Michigan now. It just makes a better arguement for the 4 stroke! One other thing, it is already against the law to sell any race fuel in Michigan that is oxygenated with anything but ethanol. Keep that in mind when you look at the different blends of race fuel that are available. (if you ever use any)
 
I buy most of my gas in Ohio anyhow and probably the last fuel that was in my sled, well it's pretty old. I'll find out when I see it.
 
I thought they had to post it. However I can see how they wouldn't if it was a state mandated regulation. Althought I can usually tell when I get gas that is 10%. At least I could in my truck.
