I've used both. They both seem to work just fine. Everything I've used them in has started and performed like it was the next morning, so what can I say.

Both are great but the Seafoam does more for you once you run the beast so I would go for it. Eddy

Been using Stabil for years on all my small engines.

I've been using StaBil for several years with good results on many applications. I've never used Seafoam so I can't comment on it.

I have used both, and both work. Having said that, I would take Seafoam over StaBil.

Seafoam is my liquid miracle worker. Not only does it stabilise the gas but on several occasions I've had really bad gas setting in a generator and been able to get them running.
Once they are running, I run a strong mixture through the tank which has cleaned out the varnish in the carb and they run like a watch.
