The problem on the 911 is: The tank is made of steel without any surface protection - it can rust and it will if there's too much water/moisture in it. For storing the car just a few months is not a problem. But the longer the car sits with only half or less full tank of gas, the more air and moisture is in the tank which can force detoriating fuel and rusting, especially when the fuel contains ethanol which attracts water...
If you use fuel storage be aware that it takes some time to mix with all the fuel in the system. The fuel pump in a SC pumps 1000cc in 30secs. To pump a full tank of gas of 80l it takes at least 40mins. This is a ride of at least 20mls...
