How long does petrol take to go off?
How long does petrol take to go off?
Now I'm not using the LS anywhere near as much as I used to, and reacon on doing about 1,000 to 1,500 miles a year ish, it means that I'm not going to be putting much petrol in it. As it happens I have now had a quarter of a tank in it for well over a month now. I was just wondering if petrol went off after a period of time.
Also, is it worth filling right up from empty when I refill or should I just stick the odd tenner in it as it's not going to be used much?
Thanks.
Jim.

also I would just put in the odd tenner when you wanted to use it, then you could always fill up a petrol can with fresh petrol and put some in if it wont start.

As far as I know petrol dose go off, we use a petrol generator down at the horse and when we tried to use it after 5 months without using it, it would not start. put in fresh petrol and it started first time.

i think petrol is ok for at least a few months but not 100% sure on it lifespan but it has all the additives to preserve it so you shouldnt get too much problems if any at all.
