I understand that it keeps pretty much indefinitely at low temperatures, so
stored outdoors or in an unheated garage in a Canadian winter it will last.
In elevated temperatures it does not fair well, but neither does dino
diesel.  Both products should be stored in as cool a place in the summer as
practical.
