What are you using for stabilizer?
You should be using Star Tron instead of Stabil.

I think these are the same company now. I purchased several under the Valpro label years ago and never had an issue. I even dropped one off a shelf, full, from a height of six feet. It barely scraped the paint.
www.roverparts.com has a pack of 4 for sale for $170

I use Pri-G to stabilize. Have used year old gas with no issues or noticeable performance change.
Any recommendation for 5 gallon gas cans that seal tight for storage and a long trip in the back of a CRV so I won’t breathe in the fumes? Plan is to store four cans with stabilizer, which would be more than enough to get me back to middle TN without stopping at a gas station assuming I leave with a full tank. I guess I should make it 8 in case I need to do a complete fill at home in the middle of the night before I split.
Why? Why do you want to go to TN without stopping for gas? You still have to stop and move the gas in your cans into the cars tank.

Oops. Off topic. This is about a bug out situation. Never mind.
If you can find them elsewhere, I suggest keep looking. Atlantic British is like the Cheaper than Dirt of Land Rover parts. I've owned several Rover project cars and I know a thing or two because I've blown a wad of cash or two. YMMV.
This is the proverbial SHTF scenario. If you’re being literal about it, of course I’d need to stop, but I can think of several scenarios where a gas station is not the place to refill - power out/pumps down, long lines, fighting.
