I just fired up my Harley that's been sitting with the same gas in the tank
for over a year. Had to kick it, too since the battery was just about dead.
Can't go *to* bad, I guess.

It's nothing new - it's well known that mogas goes 'bad' after a
relatively short period of time (and it may be pretty random whether it
goes bad or not, depending on who it came from I suppose) and this has
happened for as long as I can remember.


Ah, yet another reason to fly often!

Yeah, I had to jump-start my Goldwing (no kick-starter!), and it ran just
fine on that "old" gas.

Another topic for "Myth-busters" lost...
