OK, minds outta the gutter !
We're talking gasoline in the 914 tank - How long can a 1/4 -1/2 tank of gas sit in the tank, while the car is in storage, or under restoration (whatever) before it turns bad & begins to look like old varnish? I know I can drain the gas out, into 5 gallon containers, but I wanted to avoid that if possible. I figured about 4-5 months before it begins to go bad, but not sure. How about using a gas-additive, or octane boost? Any gas experts here? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) Thanks!
