Fuel over time can go bad. For instance, water can condense inside your fuel container and get into the gas. Also, using a metal container can cause the fuel to become contaminated. Let our repair experts help you keep all your gas-powered tools running right with these simple tips on proper gasoline storage. 
(1:39) Tip 1: Replace gas older than 30 days. 
(1:46) Tip 2: Replace your metal gas container with a plastic one to prevent contaminants from getting into the fuel. Having a smaller container will also help encourage you to refill it with fresh gas. 
(2:12) Tip 3: Adding fuel stabilizers can also help lengthen the life of fresh fuel.
(2:23) Tip 4: Replace your original gas cap with a fresh start gas cap. This will ensure that the fuel stabilizer is automatically added to your gas tank. Find the fresh start fuel cap at Sears PartsDirect. Make sure to talk to a sales associate first, since this kit does not work on all mower models.
