I will be putting my 84 Westy into storage for the winter on Nov 1st, as to
avoid the Michigan Salt, and it will not be driven until April next year.

I�m doing a fresh oil change and need to determine the best process for
fuel.

 

I have a two part question????

 

Part 1.

Is it better to store the van with a full tank of gas, or a � tank? 

I plan to run it low and add fresh gas just before storage too.

 

Part 2.

Since Gasoline starts to breakdown over time, I understand that a fuel
stabilizer should be used.  

The two products I�m considering are: 

1. Sta-Bil 

2. Sea Foam � which indicates it is a Fuel Stabilizer, as well as Injector
Cleaner, and fuel drier along with a ton of other claims. 

 

I�m leaning towards trying the Sea Foam for this winter� and wondered if
anyone else has tried this or can give me a compelling reason to use
Sta-Bil?

 

Thanks!
