If storing over the winter and not running (and driving) the engine long enough to fully warm engine oil there is no need to add an anti-gel to summer blend fuel. The "gel" is wax crystals which form when the temperature drops below the cloud point of the fuel. When the fuel temperature rises above the cloud point, the wax crystals disappear. Thus, if you don't start the engine over the winter the "gel" becomes irrelevant. I completely agree that you shouldn't start the engine at all if you aren't going to completely warm the engine oil, not just the coolant temp.
