New Gas for Dyno tuning?
My car has been in storage for the winter with a full tank of 93 octane gas and some fuel stablizer. I'm about to go tune my car on the dyno. Should I get rid of the old gas first, or should I be fine?

Alright, my dyno tune is tomorrow and I tried draining the old gas out. I only got out 2/3 and there's still 1/3 left in the tank. I don't have anytime to drain out the rest. Is it alright to pump 2 more gallons of 100 octane and 2 gallons of 93 octane? I figure I mix it because I normally put 93 in.

Cause I don't really want to drive around on my Hondata basemap. I'm worried that it will be too rich or too lean.

Fill it up with whatever gas your normally gonna be running, for the tuning if there's not much left in the bottom of the tank it should be fine.
You don't wanna tune for some mystery brew your not normally gonan run, or your tune is gonna suck on your next fill up.

I know it's a bit late, but if you are in closed loop ... it will run fine (mix wise) on any map for the most part if you are just driving around, making it no problem to burn the tank. Might take a while, though.
