Running it in a vehicle that gets driven on a regular basis isn't a big deal because it gets burned through fast enough. It's when the fuel sits and does not have stabilizer on it. Fuel with ethanol can go bad in as little as 30 days and start causing problems.

Yep, I fill up every other day in my TL, so the fuel doesn't sit in it long at all. I just like the more miles per tank with pure gas in it. With everything else though I use pure and a stabilizer.

I have "heard" as soon as two weeks on the breakdown of Ethanol depending on climate. But 30 days for sure.

I guess I need to change my habits.
One I have is buying gas cheap when I travel out of state. (save 15-20 cents a gallon) Sometime I guy 10-15 gallons. It may sit for several months before I use it all.
And this is what I have been using for my ATV's, Lawnmower's, and other things.

I have 10 gallons I bought Dec 1st, and I still have all 10. If I am supposed to be buying a stabilizer to add to it then it is pointless to buy this way and I need to change my habit.
