Does C12 go bad?

[Nick110]

Can C12 race gas go bad? Mine has been sitting for over 5 months in the tank.

If you had it sealed good it will last a very long time. so yes if sealed good 5 months is good

It was in my gas tank. That was off of my quad. So air can get in through the breather then. Still good?

OK Ill dump it tomorrow.. Then do a compression test and then put new gas in. If my quad doesnt run someone is going to die.

Yeah, dump that stuff.... Your tank is vented, so after 5 months, that stuff is toast....

Put some Sta-bil in it when you fill up next time. I don't store my race fuel for long but the Sta-bil helps it from prematurely going bad.

Gas can go bad in as little as 1 month. But I had gas sit for about 6 months already and the engine still ran fine on it.
