The storage life of petrol is one year when stored under shelter in a sealed container. Once a seal is broken the fuel has a storage life of six months at 20°C or three months at 30°C. The storage life of petrol in equipment fuel tanks is one month.

I don’t bother with stabilizer anymore. I fill with Vpower
Only one I have a cover for is the Woody. I don’t do work in that shop, so no chance for dust/damage

Do you add Stabil to the gas and don't you cover your babies?

Will be parking mine in a few weeks. Just did a 1300km 3 day car rally last weekend.. now time to clean it all up and get it ready for storage. We were surprised by some snow at higher elevations, not sticking on the roads but on the sides and on the windscreen. That was followed by a blinding rainstorm at the lower areas.  First two days were great with lots of sunshine and fabulous roads.

Today we tucked the boat in for the winter but the Mini will stay "active" until the first salt fall on our roads.

     a sad time of year !

  ~ 30 minutes in a Mini is more therapeutic than 3 sessions @ the shrink. ~
