[Roadsters] Old Gas

[Gordon Glasgow]

Just out of curiosity, do you know how products like Sta-Bil work? How do
they prevent this?

Being a fuel cleanliness specialist, I can advise you that it is usually a
fungus that lives in  water, eats fuel and releases various sulpher based
compounds, all smelly. Any condensation will do, from the tinyest droplet.
The
spores are in the air. It usually eats oils from plant and animal waste, but
likes fuel as well.
 
There are additives that kill the microbes, but the waste still stinks.

Jeeze, yeah, that stuff stinks- there's some organism that gets into it...

Whatever you do, don't get it on you, because you'll stink for days.

If you have just a little, I've burned it in the car.
If there's more than 5 gallons or so, I'd give it to hazmat-
again, that stuff's nasty!
