I welcome suggestions on whether to fill right up to the top of the fill-pipe, or stop the first time the nozzle clicks, or something in between. (The Shell station is less than a mile from our home.) ...

A lot of air space in the tank will promote condensation but there's not going to be much difference between first-click and slam full.

I suggest:
1) Fill tank about 3/4 full.
2) Add stabilizer.
3) Drive around for 10 minutes or so to mix gas/stabilizer in tank and get some of the stabilizer into the piping/injectors.
4) Top off tank as you normally do.
