What fuel should I use in my lawn mower?
If you're like most, pump gas is your 4-cycle fuel choice for lawnmowers, generators, pressure washers, & other 4-cycle equipment. Did you know that pump gas can destroy your expensive equipment? You might think if it's good enough for your vehicle, it should work great in your lawnmower.
But that's not the case. Why? The big issue is ethanol, which is an oxygenate additive. Ethanol is fine for cars and trucks but not for small engines. For one thing, ethanol absorbs water, which promotes corrosion. Corrosion eats at the small vital components in your expensive outdoor equipment. Before you know it, you're spending hundreds of dollars to get a carburetor rebuilt for your lawn mower, or even worse, a lot more to buy new equipment.
Another problem is pump gas degrades fast & forms gums + varnish faster, so you can't store it long-term unless you spend more money on a fuel stabilizer. Fuel stabilizers help to a degree, but they can't undo damage already caused by pump gas; the genie is already out of the bottle.
If you've been using pump gas & your lawn mower won't start (or any other outdoor power equipment), use VP Fix-It-Fuel.
Our Can Is Full. Is Yours?
When you purchase a one-gallon container of our Small Engine Fuel, you get a whole gallon (128 oz.). Well, duh, right? Have you ever checked the 4-cycle fuel label from the competition? Take a close look at their gallon container, and you'll see it contains...110 ounces? That's right, not even a whole gallon. Now you know why competing brands seem to be a little less expensive. You're getting less product.
Keep that 4-cycle engine in your outdoor power equipment running smoothly and efficiently with VP 4-Cycle Small Engine Fuel.
