Default Old gas

I am dropping my h22 in my car in the next week and need to know if it is ok to use the gas that is sitting in there. Its a full tank. It has been sitting in my car for a good 10 or 11 months. I hear yes and no from people so if someone has the answer, give it up. thx

Take a little bit out and throw it in a lawn mower or snowblower, if the carb clogs up, then don't use it, if it runs fine then you should be good to go.

Test it out on your neighbor's lawnmower/snow blower.

Premium fuel can go bad in 4-8 months.
