Question about 93 octane in relation to car performance...
Honestly, I wasn't sure what forum to post this in (mods, feel free to move it if necessary), but my '02 LS1 has been in winter storage for 4 months now and will be coming out next week. Prior to putting it away, I basically topped off the gas tank (almost) and ran some STABIL through it (let car idle for 10 minutes while it circulated through the fuel system). I know I should have probably drove it to really get it through, but what I want to know is will the 93 octane I have had sitting in it during these past 4 months have have any negative affect on the performance of the car before I get a fresh new tank in it? Even with the STABIL, I don't believe so, but I wasn't sure how gasoline breaks down over time and whether or not 4 months is long enough to make any noticeable difference?
Thanks,
Mike
