If I am going to park a vehicle for a few days, I try to do so on a full tank, especially if a steel tank.
Condensation from 1/2 fuel, 1/2 air can be cumulative, ending up with water at the bottom of the tank. * Also, more condensate in colder weather.
Not saying this is the reason for the no starts in this thread, but may have some affect, perhaps in addition to ethanol % fuel.
* Staying in a travel trailer at our AZ ranch, in the summer, when above 40F overnight (5400' elevation), there is no condensation issue, even if heater is used, Spring and Autumn.
However, in the winter, when interior heated to 60F and outside below 32F, I can soak a towel with each window...often twice in the evening and once in the morning. When it gets about 20 F and lower, that condensation freezes on the inside of windows.
