The volt is designed to handle fuel & engine maintenance automatically.

When the engine has not been used for a period of time EMM will run no activity required on your part.

There is no need to actively do it yourself and if you used premium gas it's good for a year, then the volt burns it all off automatically.

If you aren't going to use a tank full of gas in a year, use it how you wish but leave a quarter of a tank for FMM and annual burn off.

Then when needed add the smallest amount of fuel needed to kill the engine maintenance.

Obviously no need for a full tank if you can't use it.

Many threads on GM-volt on this matter
