Kerosene Fuel


connolls

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Don't really know what forum to put this in so here goes.

We have a number of Kerosene Heaters that we have used over the winter but are now only using them occasionally as back ground heat on cold nights...............still have some fuel left un-opened.

My question is this...........can I store this un-opened fuel for later in the year or does it have to go to waste ?

Heard somewhere that "last years" fuel cannot be kept........does anyone know if this applies to fuel i bought earlier this year but will use at the end of the year ?

Confused !!!

Any info very welcome.

Thanks Mel.
