I ONLY buy ethanol free gas, and put Stabil in it, for all of my stored 
gas.  I keep 50 gallons on hand in five gallon cans (old habit from 
having a gas powered generator) and when it gets 9 months old or so, it 
goes in the truck and the can is refilled and put to the back of the 
queue.  I have had gas over a year old work just fine in my mower and saws.

I don't keep 2 stroke premix for long periods, though, although with 
ethanol free gas it does seem to last longer.
