Hi all just a quicky... I've got an airtight 5 gallon container that still has unleadedd fuel from when I scrapped our VW Polo last October. Will this fuel still be perfectly usable or not??

Mix it into a half full tank a gallon at a time.

Stick it in! Petrol doesn't deteriorate, just get contaminated. Pour it thru@ a fine filter before you put it in the tank.

Cheers lads I did think it would be alright I'll follow your suggestions 
Quite pleased really aswell, just done a 280 mile round trip to deliver a bumper and I've still got 1/4 of a tank left

Oh yes it does! Maybe OK in a sealed can, but it will definitely deteriate in a petrol tank.316eyes wrote:Stick it in! Petrol doesn't deteriorate
