Is there a shelf life?
Thanks

Yes! Although there is no expiration date printed on the container, Stabil has a
two year shelf life once you open the container and break the original seal.

Sez who?

The manufacturer!

So, there's no date printed on the container, but once you open the
bottle it's no good in two years. Sounds to me like they want to have
their cake and eat it too. They don't want retailers returning
outdated unsold product, but they don't want consumers nursing a bottle
for 5 years. Pardon my skepticism.

I have an old opened bottle of Stabil in my garage that I haven't gotten around
to diposing. It has turned a nasty darker color and appears to have some solids
floating around in it. I sure wouldn't use it!

How old?

I have a 5-year-old bottle that looks and smells the same as the day I
bought it. Of course, I don't leave the bottle uncapped.
