Hey guys, about a month ago and a half ago, filled my tank up with C16 Gas, then blew popped the motor. Just got the car running couple days ago, should I dump the gas? How long have you guys seen before gas goes bad? Thanks again.

 

I would dump it since it was in the tank.

 

I would dump it. Better safe than sorry.

 

Yeah i would definately dump it unless you have access to a hydometer to test the fuel

 

race gas has a pretty dang good lifespan... but its probably not worth risking.. id say there is a 90% chance your good.. but its only $20-50 savings.. not worth it.

 

Hey take it out and send it to me. rota's left over from last season ran great in my 1986 Ford F150. I used the last of it last month.

I'd put about a gallon or a little more in the truck at a time mixed with what was in there. The truck has a small tank. Smells great going to the dump on the weekends.

 

we buy our rockett 118 by the barrel and it usually lasts about two seasons, we dont have any problems

 

Racegas lasts quite a while, I've used gas that has sat in my tank for 2-3+ months with no issues.

 

no doubt it sits in a giant tank at the gas station forever before it goes to you. I think it's fine as long as it's not in direct sunlight.

 

It will last quite a while in a metal tank, but not very long in a plastic container I have been told.

 

It depends on if the Gas Tank is sealed also. Are your fuel lines open to the atmosphere with your motor being out?

 

dump it and use it in the lawn mower. cut through tree stumps!!

I run mine in the mower too... Just make sure to add some 2-cycle oil to the fuel to keep the valves happy. I got this advice from a local lawnmower repair shop.
