[Roadsters] What is in todays fuel that makes everything gum up?

[tim fisher]

Today's gasoline has 10% alcohol.  Alcohol absorbs water at a faster rate than
gas does.  If you do not use a full tank of gas in a week or so, you should
look at only adding as much as you are going to use in that time.  Or, stabil
is a good product. Good for 6 months or so.
