winter lay up

another one of those no one has the right answer questions...... out of curiosity .. do you store your car with a full tank, partial tank.... as close to empty as possible.... i had always stored my boat, jetski whatever with a full tank and treated with sta-bil and never had a problem... but i hear mixed things when it comes to this nowadays.... some people say that gas does not turn any faster than it did before.... yet i have heard stories from boat mechanics all the way down to my husky dealer that todays gas is royally screwing up things as they sit......... just wondering what you guys think....

Less chance of condinsation with a full tank was my thought.

thats what i always went by..... so no rust in the tank....

The exception might be is if your car is stored at a constant temp.such as 45 degrees .Under constant temp.condensation will not develope .The advantage would be that in the spring you car run right out and get that fresh gas in the system right away.

No matter what ,may your car have a pleasant and short winter

my father started using startron http://mystarbrite.com/startron/ in our boat last year on the advice of our boat mechanic who is also a motor head.... i didnt use it last year in my 82 when i put it up but i am going to try it this year..... supposedly it worked in our boat.... or it is just another snake oil....
