I would not be storing any fuel with ethanol…………just my $.02[/QUOT
Why ?????
2 words…..Phase seperation
The problem with fuel that contains ethanol stems from a process called phase separation. When gasoline that contains ethanol sits unused for long periods the ethanol absorbs water and the alcohol content of the fuel increases. Gasoline bought at land-based stations remains stable for no more than 90 days before it starts to break down. Because water is heavier than gasoline, it sinks to the bottom of a boat’s gas tank. Come spring, when you start your engine and the fuel pump starts drawing what is supposed to be gasoline, it’s sucking in the water.
This water also contributes to corrosion sitting in the bottom of the fuel tank ( aluminium ones) and carb bowls.
Left long enough it turns into this jelly like brown goo that plugs everything, it sucks to clean out.
I would imagine some of the stabilizers would help but I just pump it out into the car after I'm done for the season so I dont have to deal with it.
