Interesting test idea. I'm at a loss to see how stabil could keep the
gas from evaporating. Maybe it hangs around with the gunk and makes it
easier for the new gas to disolve it?

My understanding, perhaps incorrect, is that the varnish formation is
a chemical reaction which Stabil somehow defers. More than
evaporation is involved with fuel deterioration although that is a
convenient way to accelerate and demonstrate gunk formation.
