G'day Tom

Unfortunately modern fuels are extremely unstable and even after a month of
so will break down in your tank.

A couple of months back I wrote about a product called STA-BIL Fuel
Stabiliser. I have not used it, but the blurb says that it stabilises modern
fuel for some period of time.

It is not an Australian product and is available in the US.

Have a look at:

Just finished reading British Motoring's article about ethanol in US
gasoline.   Here in New Hampshire, my car is going to be sitting until
sometime in late March/early April, so even with the recommended fuel
additives, I'm going to have separation.   So, to remix the gas,
alcohol, and any absorbed water, I was thinking I could run a fuel
line from the carbs back to the fuel tank, turn on the fuel pump, and
let it mix everything.  Sound feasible?
