Todays new fuel tanks in our boats are not vented to the atmosphere as they used to be. Air in the fuel system attracts water and causes fuel evaporation which leaves sediment in the tank, but no more. This is why todays fuel injected engines do not need to be drained of fuel for long term storage. There is little chance your fuel will break down in a sealed system and since all hoses and seals in the engine are ethanol resistant, there is little to worry about today. Keep your tanks full and dont worry about it.
