How long do you leave fuel for in your tank

Postby davemk2 » Sat Apr 16, 2016 12:50 pm

Hi All

Finially got my track car up and running and was wondering what people are doing in between events.

After reading this article

Im starting to think if its longer than a month I should be syphoning the escort and placing it in the daily ?

Thanks

Can't say I've had any trouble with either my injected car or carburetted one, and both of them can have fuel sit in them for months (years even) between drives. When I pulled my Escort tank out after it sat with fuel in it for about 5 years it was as clean as a whistle too, so I'm not sweating it.

Depends on what fuel but mine goes three months without dramas but if you're worried seal the breather off
