Default I got gas!

and no place to use it!

The car is going into winter storage next saturday, so I wont spray it. but I have a full 15lbs of gas in the bottle.

is it okay to just let it sit all winter? the psi are really low on the bottle b/c of the cold temps...hell, i might also have a small leak on a connection.

i'm just wondering if everything will be okay to use in the spring?
