I fill the 30 gallon tank in my Lund each fall but have not done the same on my pontoon with a built in 35 gallon tank. We don't use the pontoon that much and it is amazing how little gas that 90hp four stroke uses at low rpms just putting along. As a result, use less than a tank of gas each season. Which is worse, potential for condensation because of half full tank or gas that sits for that long? Maybe I should be filling the pontoon as well?
I would be filling up with premium and draining the gas in that pontoon every fall. It's actually pretty simple to extract just using the boat motors existing line and bulb… trailer jack or a little bit of an incline is all it takes for gravity do its thing. I've done this many times in the past and just put the old gas in my other vehicles.
Regarding E-15; some of my company vehicles can run on it and my ever mindful superintendent was using it to save the company money. He has a large heavy vehicle and after several of the idiot lights came on, we took it our mechanic and he recommended not using the E-15. We went back to the E-10 and the lights never came back on, he says the vehicle runs better and gets better mpg now too.
