Summer gas in the winter

I have gas in my prelude from probably september/october. Havent driven it since that time. The car is tuned with winter fuel originally, 11:1 CR. Will i have any problems running with this gas ?

gas is gas. it will run leaner in the winter cause the air is denser.

i didn't know there was a difference in fuel between the seasons. I always thought it was the same.

You'll be fine. Now if the issue was about summer vs. winter air in your tires you'd have more to worry about
