My last race was in november.

Have about 4 gal left in my 10 gal fuel cel.

Should I add fuel stabilizer? Probably won't run again until April.

Also, will the stabilizer damage the fuel cel foam or bladder?

thanks,
dr

if the information on the StaBil label is to be believed, the horse has left the barn.

drain it and use it in your lawnmower.

then, either leave it empty or refill with fresh gas - and StaBil.
no experience on foam or bladder damage, but i don't see how the product could damage either.
hopefully someone with actual firsthand experience will chime in - or i bet there's a contact information number or website on the product - you might check with the manufactorer...

(i bought a bottle of StaBil in the autumn but i have been able to drive the car more than i expected - i haven't used it. they also make a cylinder fogging spray that might be of interest, especially in a warm, moist environment...)
