on the subject of not keeping fuel in your classic this may be ok if it is sufficiently modern to have a plastic tank, but it is asking for trouble if it is a steel tank. Steel rusts (just peer into any steel tank) in contact with moisture laden air (typical conditions for storage from autumn to spring), this leading to rust getting into the fuel system blocking jets etc and rotting out the top of fuel tanks. I have always put my cars away with a full tank (near as dammit) when I am not using it. Never had any running problems 6 months later.
Tim,
I've always used E5 in 'Fay' without any additive since we were first forced to use it.
I now use the latest E5 98/99 octane and I'll never use E10.
The pre E10 E5 was never a problem , but we're now told petrol goes 'off" and won't keep, but does this also apply to E5 now? as I usually keep the tank full over winter as well.
