Does fuel go 'stale' as a result of having a considerable surface exposed to a large volume of air? In other words a full tank or container would stay 'fresh' when a half empty one would go stale?

Many of us (but not all) leave our lawnmowers over winter with a half empty tank and many of us start them up easily in the spring. Others find they need to drain the carb.

I have an outboard motor that I will religiously run till the carb is dry when I know I am going to leave it for a few days. I try to keep tanks full. Have never had a problem as a result.

Never had a problem with the RP.

It would be interesting to know the science.
