Default Quick Fuel Question.

I've had a gallon of Traxxas Top Fuel sitting on a shelf for like 2 year and its turned from blue to clear? Will this in any way affect performance or what??

Most likely. Try it and if tuning is crazy, if it even starts, it's bad. I would just go get some fresh fuel and have the peace of mind that the fuel is not the source of any problems.

I'd shake it up and use it. Of course, maybe I'm cheap.

I personally would not use Traxxas top fuel, but I wouldn't use it if it has been sitting that long.

If it has been sealed from the atmosphere, there is nothing wrong with it. Alot of people on here are quick to blame TOP FUEL for problems they have, I use it and have never had a problem with it. It is made by Power Master which is a well respected fuel maker. Its all about how the motor is tuned...Try it.
