That must be the suppliers that sound such malarkey. I have used numerous fuels well over 10 years old. Before "Wildcat" Fuel was taken over by "Great
Pains" I had my fuel delivered in 60 gallon packs on truck delivery. I still have a few gallons plus others not so old, yet when I open a gallon of Wildcat, it runs just as good as ever, Of course those gallon jugs are stored in a very good barn in boxes and not in sunlight, or any light, until the jug is opened for use.
Don't get too disturbed by any of the things you hear on the flying fields. O.K. to listen and sort out, but the rumor mill is always at full blast.
