When you fill up your gas cans for your small engines, I recommend putting some blue painters tape on the can. Then use a sharpie marker so that you know what type of gas you have in the can (ethanol, non-ethanol, 87 octane, 90 octane, 93 octane etc). I also make a notation that I used Stabil fuel stabilizer, so I'll know for sure whether I added fuel stabilizer or forgot to. I also put the date on it, so that if it gets 4 or 5 months old, I'll dump it in my truck and fill the can up with fresh fuel.
I started doing this because of all the ethanol fuel problems and bad gas problems I was seeing in my small engine shop.
Just a good idea that I thought I would pass along.
