hello<br /> I put an ad in the paper and a guy showed up and took 200 gallons of the stuff. most places charge 1.50 to 3.00 a gallon to dispose of it.<br /> good luck and keep posting

I had some gas about that old and a friend that works at a local refinery dumped about a gallon of the concentrated alcohol they use at the refinery and I burnt it in a carbed Dodge 360 and kept adding some Prem gas with.

just remember that all the solids left behind in old fuel tend to build up on the piston skirts and destroy pistons in a two stroke. if it does not aid in lubrication it aids in destruction. dump the gas. dont snake oil it or the rebuild is costly.

just pour it out of the gastank and if u want to burn it out of the engine just pull out the gas line going to the engine and then burn out the gas by acelerating until your engine dies down

Getting rid of fuel wouldn't be an issue here in the UK, at about $8-00 a gallon someone would steal it.
