I was just wondering if anyone knew how to go about diagnosing that and potential fixes.
I would simply siphon most (not all) of the old gas out of the tank. You can keep the siphoned gas since it’s perfectly fine for lawnmowers and such.
I would drive the car to the nearest gas station and fill up the tank with fresh gas, and go for a long highway drive. This should solve your issues.
Next winter prior to storage, fill the tank to the top with ethanol free gas (if possible) and add fuel stabilizer.
