The stabilizer won't help after the fact. It needed to be put in first.
If you only have 1/4 tank of gas, fill her up with good gas and stabilizer.
That might help out with the old gas. Hook her up to a hose and see how she sounds on
the trailer. If it sounds good, back it down a ramp, then put her in gear and push on the
trailer to see if she will power up or bog down. If it bogs down, you will probably have
to get the carb. cleaned. Be sure to install new spark plugs also.
