I make our last trip on the water in late August'and fill up the tank at that time. dependent on the fishing I may make several fill ups. What ever is left in the tank on September is what i leave in it for the winter.I dont top it off.
I buy all my fuel at the town marina and it's mid grade (89 octane) and is ethanol free.and treated with Valve-Tech. marine additive. I've never had any problems.
I have it winterized and shrink wrapped in September. and it sits there untill spring(late April to mid May) when we start the year over again.10 years now and no fuel issues.
not sure if this serves any purpose but I run 2 fuel -& water filters/ seperaters and change them mid year.
Im not a gambling man but I doubt that future prices for gasoline will remain as low as they are now.
