When it does it floats to the top where it grabs water and falls to bottom of the tank and rots everything. Try searching for ethanol free gas stations especially if you are going to let it sit for longer than 2 months.

Well I have a bungee net and zip ties, plus an overhead storage thing I can connect to make it into a bouncing cradle. LOL. The wife is going to kill me with this one. She is used to my insanity but not at this level all that would be missing is duct tape, oh wait I can use it to plug the holes. If you cannot fix it with duct tape and zip ties, then you are not using enough.
