like gw said sta-bil is your only option. Ideally you would want to switch your gas items to a more storage friendly product like diesel, kerosene or propane

FWIW, I remember a story as a kid about a guy that stored a very large amount of gas during the 70s gas surge/etc, only to find it evaporated.

Fellow sort of poked fun of himself.

At that time I remember the large tanks in the bed of pick up trucks becoming popular.
