You should never try to run anything on gas that's 3 years old, unless it has a stabilizer added to the gas before it was parked. Gas, depending on the season it was purchased, the part of the country it was purchased in, and the climate where the car was stored, can degrade significantly in a matter of weeks. Drain the tank and refill it with new gas.
