Thanks

It all depends how it was stored. I've run some 1 year old fuel, and my engine ran just fine on it. Actually it had turned brown, it was supposed to be yellow, but since I had more than 10 gallons on my STS I figured it couldn't hurt.
But old fuel is still not recommended.
I can vouch for fuel lasting 2 years stored properly. Up until a month ago I was using 2yr old fuel but it's been used up!
I can't see old fuel damaging anything, just not runing well if it's bad. I tried 15 yr old stuff once. Wouldn't run but didn't harm anything either.
What if i have a half a gallon of traxxas 20 percent fuel stored in a dark closet about 68 degrees would it be bad for a brand new nitro car
Where did you find 15 yr old nitro??
get some new fuel left mine a couple of months and just started getting problems so i wud not risk it
