Ethabox, converting your engine to ethanol
By installing an Ethabox kit, your boat's gasoline engine can run on any fuel: SP98, SP95, SP98/E5, SP95/E10 or E85. In fact, the box analyzes the ethanol content of the fuel and automatically regulates the quantity of fuel required. By running on ethanol, the manufacturer guarantees a 40% reduction on fuel bills. Installation by a certified installer is now guaranteed by MMA. A good point for all owners wary of losing their warranty with such an installation.
Ethabox box: from 699 euros
Bardahl, fuel stabilizer
To reduce pollution, essences contain alcohol. This tends to evaporate over time. This is not harmful to the fuel when it is consumed quickly, but if it has to remain in the tank for a long time, it degrades. This is often the case on a boat, where fuel can remain unused for an entire winter. For this reason, it's advisable to empty the tank if it's no longer needed. But this is not always possible with fixed tanks. That's why it's a good idea to use a product like Bardahl fuel stabilizer, which extends fuel life by up to 24 months.
Essence stabilizer, 18.90 euros per 250 ml to treat 250 l of fuel
