Yup.

I always use stabil in the 2-cycle mix.

I keep at least two cans of gas on hand for four cycle engines. One can
is normally fresh and used for equipment where I expect to refuel in
less than a month. The other is always stabilized, and it is used to
fuel rarely used equipment (generator, chipper, ...). In the fall I
usually put stabil into both so that all the equipment has stabilized
fuel thru-out, in case I don't use it again until spring.

Works great. No problems since I started doing this (10 years ago?).

Oh, and I'm in a very dry climate. (SW Idaho, ~ 12in annual precip
which comes mostly october to april).
