Default Different experience in Hammond.

First of all we are sold on removeable 5 gal. outboard motor tanks for safety. As we are still finishing work on the trucks and need to do some welding the tank can come off so easily. Also if closed tight and being plastic we do not seem to be having stale gas problems or separation within the gas tank as reported on US Chev forums.

I do keep extra Hi test gas in similar 5 gal. Specter containers with no makor problems.... container are full to the top and sealed tight. I do rotate the fuel in the lawn mower tractor and for paint gun cleaning but a lot of my gas is over 3 months old at time.

Hi test is more expensive short term but does run better in the truck and in the chain saw, mower, slurry pump, pressure washer, etc.

In fact I do not even bother with fuel additive except for the full tank of the electric generator to insure quick start in an emergency .

Cheers
