I use a kerosene heater for the colder nights. I had kerosene left over. 1/2 tank was in the heater from last year.

I started it up outside (for safety) Seems to burn fine. Question is what about the Keroseene that was stored outside in a shed. Would the temperature changes have any effect on it? Or would it be ok to continue refilling the heater with the extra kerosene.

*Heater was stored inside all year*


Experienced replys on this one please, lol

I asked this before(not on this forum) but I do believe that it should be fine (long shelf life...) the only thing you have to worry about is it getting moisture in it.
