Today I learned what a fuel pulsation damper is and that my cars have them.

Yes. It depends on a lot of factors, but pure gasoline can spoil in as little as 3 to 6 months. Fuel with ethanol can start to degrade in as little as one to 3 months.

The clock starts ticking when it is manufactured, not put into your tank so it's hard to judge just how old fuel really is.

He doesn't go anywhere? Not commuting adds up. I think I might only be on my 2nd or 3rd tank this year too.

For winter I fill it with non-ethanol premium with a dash of Sta-bil. No problems.
