is it safe to use 6 month old gas?

Thanks guys, lots of useful ideas. I'm off to get a siphon and gas can and put some of the gas in the daily driver. If I can get 5-10 gallons out and fill it right back up it sounds like I'll probably be in good shape.

If you see a Silver Boxster in Elgin Illinois engulfed in white smoke, don't worry it's not Chong, it'll just be me on the way to Amoco.

Yep, fill the tank with gas from the busiest station in your area - likely the 'freshest' and the 'driest'. Add a can of Lubro-Molly Jectron and go! Refill at 1/2 Tank, again, the busiest station, and fohgetaboutit....

jectron : )

i would say its ok, but if you are really worried, add some octane back in, using something like Torco. gas that sits looses octane.

but taking some out for the daily, then putting in fresh 91/93 octane will not hurt anything.
