[lgb240]

I'm a big believer in using stabil. I have several cars stored off site that I don't get to drive very often.
My E30 touring sat for 7 years...full tank of gas, stabil added before being stored. I always meant to get it out, but one summer turned into 2, then 3 then ....7 !!! Last summer I put in a fresh battery and it fired up first try. Being fuel injected certainly helped. I ran it enough to get it on my trailer and into the garage back home. I did drain all of the old fuel I could out of the tank and used a fuel additive mixed with new fuel for the next few tanks. No issues. I got rid of the old fuel by mixing it in my f150's 120 litre tank about 20 litres at a time. No issues there either.

My 240z has triple Weber carbs. They've been on the car for 20+ years. It always gets winter stored with stabil. Last summer I took apart the carbs for something to do. Clean as a whistle inside. Not a trace of varnish anywhere.
