"Hi everyone, new to this place. I have a question. I just got a new boat with a DF175 on it and i'm going to be using fuel with ethanol. On my other engines(yamaha) i've been using startron and ring free since day one, can i use tha same stuff on this motor ? is it going to void any warranty ? does Suzuki have their own version of ring free? Thanks, and sorry about all my questions."
 
The answer SHOULD be no. If y

The answer SHOULD be no. If you just purchased the boat new ask the service guys. You need to run something to stablize and treat for E10. Startron/Starbrite and ring free are a good combination.
 
"You asked if using StarTron a

"You asked if using StarTron and Ringfree would void your warranty. My long answer was no. Again, ask the service guys.

Personally I would not dream of running the engine without StarBrite/StarTron in the gas. Ring free is an option that I would personally skip and substitute with an SeaFoam engine de-carb treatment every 50 hours maybe 100 hours for a 4-stroke. This is just me. Many others have their own opinion."
