Old I have been asking myself the same question. I do not think this low oil price is going to last long. I would like to buy gas now and store it for later use.
I do not believe the guys that post on here about starting cars and tractors that have set for years with alcohol blended fuel in them. I have had it go stale in under six months let alone a year or more.
Am thinking more along the lines of several thousand gallons. I have two one thousand gallon tanks that are not used much anymore as we bought larger diesel tanks and usually buy it just a few times each year now.
So I will second your question. Does the amount of gas make the storage better or worse??? Will it go stale slower?? Will it pickup too much water??? Would premium/ethanol free store any better??
How long is gas stored after it is distilled anymore??? I know it used to be stored for a year or more commonly. The large tanks west of Dubuque used to fill with gas in the late fall for usage the next summer.
