Message	Unless I get the canned fuel from Home Depot. Lawn mower, weed wacker, push mower, Z, Jeep, F150 and the boat all get pump e10 and I've never had any issues with fuel going bad over the winter. The only potential issues that I might be able to attribute to the ethanol were a cracked fuel line on my weedwacker and a failed fuel pump on my 12year-old riding mower. Never have had any spring startup issues. Only thing I've ever used Stabil in was the boat, just because it's dirt-cheap insurance compared to dumping 80gal of gas and/or needing a tow while out on the water (not to mention being stranded out on the water in early April is frankly dangerous if weather turns). Northeastern Md, so usually my fall tanks of gas in the boat, Z, and lawn equipment sit from November thru Feb/March (4-5 months tops)
