Fuels tend to form gums when they age. A lot of fuels today have an inhibitor in them. Storage conditions play heavily on aging. If a tank is exposed to tempperature extremes it will age quicker than one that isn't exposed to major temp. changes. Water is the other big item. Even though it starts out dry ,condensation is occuring daily. With the water then comes the bacterial growth. It doesn't take much to get a growth going in a fuel tank. 04 fuel ought to be good for a couple of more years, but filtration as mentioned is the best solution to potential problems.
