I just cleaned and sanitized a corny keg with Io Star sanitizer, I will be kegging another batch in 4-5 days....is it ok to leave the sanitizer in the keg until keg day or should I empty it and resanitize when ready to keg?

Thanks!
 
I can't speak for IO Star but with StarSan I leave it in my keg for sometimes weeks at a time without any problems.
 
I think it will be fine. IO-Star is 5 Star's version (maybe the wrong word) of Iodaphor. StarSan is fine to leave in a keg for quite a long time, Iodaphor solution looses it's effectiveness more quickly than StarSan so pretty sure IO-Star will be just fine.
