Default can make old fuel new again?

well i posted couple days ago on how to drain my gas tank, well i kinda been having second thoughts. i have half a tank in my project LS that has been sitting around for who knows how long (5-6) months. i was gonna just get some freinds to take the gas and use it fer themselves but can i put some fuel stabilizer and octance booster in it? im thinking its 93 octane in there but to be sure i wanna add some booster. so can i add those 2 additives in my tank along with some more 93 whenever i get the car started.

thanx

waste of cash, either drain it, or use it up.

After 5-6 months it should'nt be that bad, I have no idea what adding fuel stabalizer now would do, becuase its meant to slow down the oxidation process of your gas and its already prob oxidized a bit.

I personally have an old tank of gas in my teg currently, without stabalizer and i'm just going to drain it.

Hmmmm take it out of the tank and sell it to someone that uses 87 or 89. Someone with a shitty car. People always needs gas.

I hear letting it melt stirofome works too. Turns gooey. Have fun! Put it in a balloon and launch it! Or hallow out a pototo and fill it then launch it with a pototo launcher!!!!!

Go to the paint store and buy some xylene. Pour it in there to boost the octane. The store bought octane booster doesnt do much unless you use like ten bottles.
