How many gallons in our gas tank?
So I tucked my baby away for the winter 2 weeks ago but hav'nt gotten around to adding STABIL to the gas tank as yet since I am not sure how many gallons of gas is in there. The gas tank is full right now as she sits. Before someone pipes this, I already know I am lazy

Depends on where you look to find out how much gas it holds. 
According to www.corvetteactioncenter.com '97-'00 has a 19.1 gallon tank, '01-'03 has a 18.5 gallon tank, and '04 has a 18 gallon tank.

realize too that if you put stabil in the tank you need to run the car for a while to circulate the stabil around, helps to make sure that you get the stabil in all of the fuel system.

STABIL is some good stuff. I have used it on my Camaro while I have been to the Middle East two times already.

Mine is 18 gallons - one of the bottles that treats 20 gallons will work just fine.

That should have been pre-mixed or put into a low tank 1st. Then run for about 10 minutes to circulate thru the engine. Might not do much good putting it into a full tank now.

Some other posts suggested running the engine for 5 minutes to let it circulate through the system. Your fuel system doesn't operate like an oil return system.
