[Healeys] Old Gas

[John Sims]

Will probably get a variety of opinions on this. I had a half tank of gas in
my BN6 for five years and it started up with no problems this Fall.

When is gas too old to use?  I have about half a tank of gas in my MGB that
has been sitting for about 1 year.  I am finishing the rebuild of the engine
and plan to fire it up later this month.  Should I dump the gas first or
should it be OK.  I live in Los Angeles and the car has been stored outside
during this period.
