    Diesel typically has a longer shelf life, so thats one benefit. A year, under optimal conditions. I believe you can still buy stabilizers meant specifically for diesel.

        I would highly recommend you do not drain the fuel tank, you should leave it with a full tank to minimize the amount of room for moisture in the air to condense. Too much moisture in your tank can cause it to rust from the inside out if it’s steel.

          I would also fill it with rec gas - gas containing no ethanol. The add gas stabilizer.

            It’s a diesel engine, but that’s excellent advise for anyone with a gas engine that comes across this post!

        Definitely add diesel stabilizer. It might not be necessary, but it’s not expensive, and better safe than sorry
