Default fuel stabilizer

I am going to be storing my s2k soon . I would like to know if there is a specific fuel stabilizer I should use?

And I should fill up the tank and use the whole bottle?

Sta-Bil makes good stuff.So do Amsoil & others.

Use the chart on the back label for correct amount.Good for cars & anything that runs on gasoline.

As important as fuel stabilizer is (Sta-Bil and Sea Foam) be sure to top off the fuel tank to prevent condensation and water vapor absorption. You can get a jerry can and top it off when the car is in place. Try to use fuel with as little ethanol as possible. Use a battery minder if you can.

I top off the gas tank and hook up the battery tender.

Top up but UNLATCHED, tranny in reverse ( these from owners manual). Parking brake OFF.

Skipped Sta-Bil last fall, no ill effects.

Owners manual says start up and run ( each month?). I don't do that.

Dryer sheet over the air intake ( mice built a condo in there 2 years ago)

Dryer sheets and mint/cotton balls on floor in side.
