First of all I know it's dino fuel and dino fuel makings are millions of years old. Yea but that's not the stuff you put in your propane tanks exactly.
--------------
The other day the subject of Propane life in the tank came up. Folks were talking about getting large quantities that would take awhile to consume. Wondering if there was anything to worry about like if it were gasoline or even diesel.
Today I connected a bottle to an appliance and it worked as good if not better than the stuff I bought recently after I had drained that tank. Fill date on the bottle was 1988.
One reason I was curious if the stuff degrades is that I have a 250 gallon tank whose sole purpose is to run my standby generator for the house. No telling how long that gas will sit in that tank before it gets used. Now I'll find something else to worry about.
So much for that!
