| This is another question on leaving a gas tank full or empty over the winter.
First off, I've done both. I prefer to leave the tank empty, but have left the tank full based off of conflicting advice. Even thoguh I've treated gas prior to winterization I don't fee comfortable leaving gas sit for 6-7 months and then running it through the engine (4-stroke). Here's my question. I have a fuel/water seperator in my boat. If the argument for leaving the tank full is that condensation can occur in an empty tank, wouldn't the seperator catch that condensation as the first tank of gas in run through? Similarily, wouldn't the seperator catch any water generator by the breaking down of gas through the months of storage? Is the seperator a safeguard regardless of what winterization process you follow when it comes to gas in the tank? | |
