Stocking E-85 in 55 gallon Drum.....Will it go bad in a period of time??????
Im thinking of switching to E85 but the nearest station is like 70 miles from my house
I have two 55 gallon drum and thinking of stocking it. My question is will it go bad after a period of time?
Whats the ideal time limit to stock and use it?(as good as fresh)
thanks

they say to keep it off the cement floor due to the various temp changes. U have to get something to put the drums on to keep them off the floor. Plus look into a good pump to get the e85 out of the drums.

It is a little more viscous than gasoline I belive so you will have to find a pump that will be able to handle it. As far as elevating the drum just put it on top of some 4x4's or 2x4's.

I bought two used 65 gallon drums from VIGO back when you could get them in 2007-08. I drove five hours to get some e99 to fill them up. I use the e99 for secondary injection. I just started using the second tank a few months ago. still working fine with years of carport storage in very moist florida.
