fuel conditioner


I know this is a newb thing I did and don't be to hard on me but. I was getting my car ready to run and I put fuel conditioner in with only a gallon or 2 in the tank and now my engine boggs.

now the real question is should I sipon the 2 gallons of fuel out of my tank and poor fresh fuel in it or should I just tank up and let the conditioner flow through?

your bogging down because that much stabil is causing your car to run like you have 67 octane instead of 91... on the bottle is should say to mix with 15 gallons of gas....
