This may be a good for a test of Cetane boosters. Take 5 gallons, treat it with one brand, see how it goes, take five try another brand, and so on and so on....
With 400 gallons, you should have enough to try every brand a couple times.

I call my distributor and asked how long they figure it's good for, they say 2 years. O crap, I've had some of this batch for like 5 years, I used to buy a lot of fuel. I still have about 400 gallons. It still works but the cetane tends to evaporate out. I guess I will go back to driving my cars till I run out. max
