I know that gas starts to degrade after sitting for 6 months. My car hasn't run for about a year now. My plan was to drain the fuel out, but it looks like there's more in the tank than I thought and I don't have a big enough pan.
Would 12 month old gas damage the injectors? Could I mix in some fresh gas and get away with running the old through? Anyone with have this experience? |
