I am in the same situation…
A trick I found to lower the costs a bit: since Netflix doesn’t put ads in child programs (and I don’t watch Netflix), I went to the ads sponsored version.
In general, gasoline and diesel can be stored for 6 months to 1 year without significant degradation if they are stored in a clean, sealed, and dry container or tank, away from sunlight, heat, and sources of ignition. However, fuel that is exposed to oxygen, moisture, or contaminants can deteriorate more quickly, resulting in reduced quality, lower octane rating, and increased levels of sediments or sludge.
So yeah, the trope of hopping in an abandoned car after the zombie apocalypse does not work 😂
In addition to the carbon monoxide problem, is there also not the issue that fuel last only for half a year (a bit more with some additives) ?
Btw, anyone know how entities (e.g. hospitals) with fuel-based emergency generators manage their fuel supply?
Plus Ludusavi afterwards to backup the saves !
