how long will a little over half a tank of 80% 91 octane and 20% e85 last for before it severly degrades
>e85
A month, tops.

because its been like 3 or 4 months
should i just top off my tank with 91 and add stabil?
>>15401355
oh legolas-kun. how i long for thee
also will stabil affect my cars tune?

Bruh, it takes a long time to degrade. Dump a little octane booster in it, and fill it up with new gas once you get to 1/2 tank. I had a car sit for over a year and had no issues with the fuel.
2 months before the octane rating starts dropping, 6 months before it's on the verge of being non-salvageable.
Corn juice also attracts water, but with mainly normal fuel it shouldn't be too bad.

the only time I've seen this work was a bit weird

>deep in mud so just drag it onto a trailer
>get it home and do some fluid checks
>top up oil and water leave the petrol as is
started on the second turn
ran on only three cylinders
pulled the car forward despite a seized hand brake
lead petrol lasts a while but is illegal(mostly)
modern gas can be ok if additives are used but it may mess with the engine latter on
leaving no gas in the tank might work but most people I know are suspicious of that approach
one thing I have seen with old cars is that the tank rusts up to where it is full and is otherwise fine
the water in the fuel can separate over time and so does the bits of metal and whatever is suspended in the mix
have you talked to a car museum or preservation society ?
some of them are very good at long term storage while also keeping the cars in a fixable sate

tbhfam just drain it
