When you're going that slow, can you really tell the difference?

I've had gas sit for a long time that burned fine. I've heard that temp is a huge factor in storage. Mine was over winter so it was cooler. Being in Texas, Ryan might have more of a problem.

well it was winter. I took it apart before i went to Europe in mid september and now its February. But i am sure there were a few hot days during that span. This is texas and the wether changes by the hour. Sunny and clear one minute, then someone turns on the largest water faucet and its pouring like you cant believe. Then its clear again, and humid and......OH!!!!!! ME NO LIKEY TEXAS!
