I've stored diesel for up to 3 years with no problems. Since my pickup and equipment is older, I treat the diesel with Optilube XPD for a little more fuel lubrication. I try to rotate the diesel so it doesn't get too old. It pains me to be using $1.89 diesel, knowing what the refill costs will be. Some of my neighbors are using 5 and 6 year old diesel in their tractors.
