bEmpty the gas tank then when you need to drive it again buy a 1 gallon gas jug.

Re: (andoxviii)
you want to fill the tank and add a fuel stabilizer to help keep moisture out of the gas
Why??? because a tank with a small amount of fuel leaves more air space inside and more area for mosture to condence. all that moisture ends up in your gas

That make sense to me, add stabilizer and fill the tank it will be fine. If it isn't then you might be able to get some money out of the stabilzer company, ha ha. Anyway, be sure to run the car after the stabilizer is added so that the fuel in the lines and rail will have stabilizer in them.

Yes definitely fill your tank. If there is space in your tank for air there will be a build up of moisture and you dont want that.
Plus if you are only storing it for two months dont worry about putting any stabilizers but it definitely wont hurt.
good luck
