How does Star Tron's enzyme treatment formula work?
Star Brite Star Tron is a revolutionary fuel additive based on enzyme technology. Used correctly, it can prevent the problems associated iwth water content in fuel. Water can wind up in your gas or diesel fuel as a result of condensation in the tank. Because water is heavier than fuel, it sinks to the bottom of the tank and forms a distinct water layer. The fuel pick-up tube is located at the bottom of the tank so once this happens, water is supplied to your fuel pump. Since engines cannot burn water, they start to sputter and eventually stop running. In addition, water is corrosive so it deteriorates tank walls and metals in the fuel delivery system.
The enzymes in Startron prevent the water molecules that are in fuel from combining and forming a distinct water layer. Water is reduced to sub-micron size particles that cannot cause corrosion and are safely burned during normal combustion. The enzymes disperse water derived from normal condensation into microscopic clusters, and allows the water to pass through the fuel system and engine harmlessly, preventing the buildup on the tank bottom that can contribute to poor performance, fuel gelling and corrosion.
This de-watering effect prevents potential phase separation. If large amounts of water are already present it will be de-emulsified and drop out of the body of the fuel, improving overall fuel performance. Star Tron can also counter the effects of lost octane, greatly improving the combustion performance of E-10 fuel that has had water contamination.
Star Tron can also prevent filter plugging from old gum and varnish. The enzymes help break down the dislodged sludge and other deposits into sub-micron-sized particles that usually pass through the fuel filter and are burned away as part of the combustion process. Tank deposits that would cause gelling are solubilized so that fuel flows uninterrupted through the filters.
Star Brite Star tron is available in 8 fl. oz, 16 fl. oz, 32 fl. oz.

Questions & Answers about StarTron Gasoline Engine Fuel Treatment:
2013-04-05A shopper asked: will too much of this product at one time damage the fuel system?
+Expand Answers
2013-04-05JOHN KALWARA: From everything I've read, no you can not add too much of this product. I've found myself being very judicial in adding this to my gas tanks. A little goes a long way. Hope this helps.
2013-04-05GARY APOSTOLAKOS: don't know. go on-line to startron

2013-01-13A shopper asked: can you use star tron gas treatment in a brand new truck ford 5.4 v8 ?
+Expand Answers
2013-01-14HUGH M REYNOLDS: Yes, it will not hurt any gas engine.
2013-01-14CHARLES RUEHL: Tell the customer to ask Ford Motor Company
2013-01-14DENNIS WEAVER: Yes, it can be used in all engines, however it only works in the gas that it is in. By that I mean it is not a one time treatment it should be added every time gas is added to the truck. I use it in by Yamaha F250 outboard to prevent water in my fuel and to keep the engine internals clean. Marine engines are run hard and prone to carbon build up, to compare it would be like towing a boat every time you use the truck.
2013-01-14V. STEPHAN SETTE: Yes. I use it in my 07 Chevy Tahoe with no issues.
2013-01-15GARY APOSTOLAKOS: I use it for my boat, car, truck and motor cycle
2012-12-02THOMAS NEVIASER asked: Does this product, in the long run, increase MPGs?
+Expand Answers
2012-12-04Nathan Fournier: Yes, there are significant gains in MPG as well as power by cleaning out your fuel system and valves of gum, carbon and deposits. However, I am a fan of the CRC PHASE GUARD "CRC-06142" because it does a better job with corrosion protection and fuel system cleaning among other properties, thank you.

2012-08-21A shopper asked: Which is the best treatment for eyhanol in gas?
+Expand Answers
2012-08-21JOSEPH HARRINGTON: Startron is the only additive that I have used to cure ethanal related products. My results have been excellent! I use it in every gas powered piece of equipment that I own. The most noticable results have been in my 4 stroke Yamaha outboard motor which seems to be very sensitive to gasoline with ethanol added.
I strongly recommend using Startron.
2012-08-21WILLIAM RUSSELL: Hello i have tried many products but i find star Tron the best on the market and the best prioce. My customers use it in their cars and get 2-3 miles per gallon extra, they use it in their boats to take care of the ethanol problem and they also use it in their lawn mowers, trims and etc. This products works great and not only do i sell it but also use the product myself
2012-08-22SHARON JOLLY: I daily drive a 1974 Vette which was originally designed for leaded gas. The mechanic that I have used for the past 15 years and knows my car well recommended I start using and adding StarTron Gasoline Engine Fuel Treatment due to all the changes and additives to today's gas. I have been adding 1/4 cup to each full tank for over a year now. The car starts easier and when turning the ignition off the car shuts down immediately. No more the car trying to continue to run and petering out! I know my still driving a '74 is out of sync with most cars today. Unfortunately I cannot speak to those who are driving today's newer cars. Hope this helps you
2012-08-22JOSEPH SOMERS: I know a few people who use this with every fill-up. No problems. I think it is a good product that protects the engine.
2012-08-26TY JONES: This one will solve your issues with ethanol. I do not have hesitation issue with my boat anymore and don't have the starting issue when I have docked for more than 20 or 30 minutes.
2012-08-11RON S asked: is startron gas treatment the same as ethonal treatment?
+Expand Answers
2012-08-13DON KISIAH: Yes but much more. It will also clean out your fuel tank and lines as well as fuel injectors or carb. Good stuff
2012-08-15JOSEPH HAENN: It is. I have been using it for 5 years in my boats and have not had any ethanol related problems. I use it everytime I put gas in my boat. Never have had a problem in the spring either after the boat has been layed up for 4-5 months. Good stuff as far as I am concerned.
2012-05-30A shopper asked: i want to mix this with a gallon of gas. my question is how much do i add?
+Expand Answers
2012-06-07WILLIAM RUSSELL: you mix 1 ounce for 16 gallons, you do not have to worry about adding to much, will not have any effect. I usually mix a 5 gallon with one ounce of startron and use it in all my motors, trimmers, lawn mowers and all run better especially the car engine and the outboard.
2012-06-07TY JONES: Initial is 1 oz to 8 gallons
then
refills are 1 oz to 16 gallons.
To save even more money, buy the diesel version of Star Tron as it is the same only higher concentration. You can treat twice the fuel with the diesel version.
Diesel StarTron put in regular gas:
Initial is 1 oz to 16 gallons
then
refills are 1 oz to 32 gallons
2012-06-08THOMAS BRETON: The label is quite specific and gives the amount for the first fill and a lesser amount for refills.I don't have the label in front of me sorryI I think 8ozs. does 108 gallons.
2012-06-09JOSEPH SOMERS: A 1/2oz will treat 8 gallons so 1/4oz would treat 4 gallons. So 1/4 oz will work. Too much is not a problem. You can't over treat the gas. It will not harm anything if you have too much in the gas.
2012-05-15A shopper asked: Must you use high octane fuel/gas?
I was told to use hi test 93
+Expand Answers
2012-05-17DALE SHAW: I don't use premium gas and checking the Startron website doesn't indicate that requirement for Startron to be effective. My concerns were fuel storage and alcohol damage to small engines. Startron seems to address those issues and engines also seem to run smoother. I am not saying that you can use a lower octane fuel if hi test 93 is required by your engine manufacturer. Always follow the directions for products and equipment.
2012-05-26GARY APOSTOLAKOS: no, I use it with regular gas station gas and with recreation gas also
2012-05-26ROBERT REIN: I have never used high test when using this product and have never experienced any problems. Have been using it for several years now.
2012-05-02JAMES HOLLIDAY asked: Need a GOOD cleaner and Stabilizer to use in the fuel of my 2008 Suzuki Cruiser. I don't want something that is going to do any type of damage to my bike. Do you recommend this product?
+Expand Answers
2012-05-02JOSEPH SOMERS: I live in a boating community in NJ. Many of us use StarTron on a regular basis for summer use. In addition, Stabil is added for short and long term storage such as winter. Both work very well and I do not add gas to any of my boat engines without putting in both of these products.
2012-05-02TY JONES: I highly recommend StarTron. And, If you can I would recommend only filling your bike with ethanol free fuel.
2012-05-02THOMAS BRETON: I have used this in everything I own it is the best thing ever.It will repair almost any gas engine.I spend about $700 a year on it and it is well worth it.My boat used to get about 1.3 miles per gallon until I unused startron now I get about 1.5 to 1.7 gallons per mile per gallon. Anyway if you could drink this Iwould
2012-05-07JEFFREY SPEROW: Yes, absolutely. I highly reccomend this product for motorcycles or cars. I purchased my my first 32 oz. bottle of Star Tron from the local bike repair shop. Noticed performance boost in my 1993 ZX1100 Ninja almost immediately. Performance continued to improve with each tank of gas that I ytreated with Star Tron. I use it religiously in both bike and !005 Subaru SVX. Keeps ethanol mixed with gasolone and prevents water seperation. Also enzymes in Star Tron eliminated carbon sticking in idle control valve in the car. Amazing stuff, I swear by it. Jamestown Distributors has best price available that I've found so far.
2012-04-24A shopper asked: Can this product rejuvenate 1 and 3/4 year old gasoline? I have 12 gals that was treated with Stab-il in my boat tank in the fall of 2010. I have not had an opportunity to get my boat out since then. Please advise...
I usually complain more than compliment, but in this case I have to take my hat off and bow to this stuff and write a review.
I have been using Star Tron for about 6 months in my boat (1999 Yamaha 200 outboard 2 stroke.) Right away I noticed that it was easier to start, especially when I let it sit for a few months during winter. It also runs smoother. Very noticeable and will keep using it in boat. (I used to have to Starting Fluid and change the plugs if it sat for too long, bad I know :( but now it just starts quick every time like it was warmed up.)
But the big visible difference is when I put it in my friends F150 pickup. It was running poor with hesitation and sluggish. I thought it was going to stall in the middle of an intersection. It always died on hard acceleration. I put in ONE treatment of Star Tron. Half a tank of gas later ALL THE PROBLEMS WERE GONE! Not just less, but GONE! We were both shocked actually. I thought it might help a little, but it went way past helping.most of my friends carry a bottle in our trucks.
ALSO, I use it in my lawn mower, weed eater and chainsaw. They run smoother and always start after sitting.
The first fuel additive that really does something noticeable.

Comments about Star Brite StarTron Gasoline Engine Fuel Treatment:
First time I used this product was on my fising boat's 115hp Evinrude that sat with untreated fuel in it for 9 months. I added the double dose to the tank and topped off with fresh fuel and left it in the tank for 2 days. Then took the boat out for the first time that year it ran kinda sluggish for about 300 yards then "WOW" it just took off like I hit the nitrous switch! I looked down at the tach and it was overrevving! I had to go from a 19 pitch prop to a 21 pitch prop! to maintain the same RPM at WOT even with 3 other fat [*] fishing buddies! Well worth the extra 4cents a gallon! My boat can sit all year and still fires right up! I use it in everything I own now. Cars, trucks, lawn mowers, snow mobiles and no more hard starts any more. Far better than Stabil's ethanol treatment but don't throw it away! Pour it out and use the bottle for the Startron. Makes it far easier to measure out accurately.

Comments about Star Brite StarTron Gasoline Engine Fuel Treatment:
Used in a 225 OptiMax just before winter. I fish year round until hard water sets in. This means the engine must start in harsh conditions with air temps in the high teems to mid 20's at times. First thing I noticed was that the engine started much easier than in the past--no hesitation at all. 2nd thing I noticed was that there was no lagging until the engine was totally warm. In the past on cold mornings, the engine would want to "die" at full throttle--all that went away when I started using the Startron. Couldn't be happier.
