As said many times it’s not the fuel it doesn’t go bad in two days, if it’s because of being vapor locked from in the shop just as an experiment leave it out in the cold overnight with fuel in it to see how it starts. Then if not that see how much timing is added and maybe back it off a bit if...
Local hardware store sells an insert in there generic plastic divided bins, inserts are like 75 cents to a couple dollars depending on size.

The only time it will feel underpowered is with a pretty decent size box trailer at elevation. We’re in flat area about 1200 ft above sea level and the pentistar does ok here in the ones I drove. It won’t keep up to my 2.7 ecoboost but it shouldn’t either especially at elevation.
