Following this $ 100,000.00 question, can only hope you get a solid answer .

Transfer to truck and go

Mix it with fresh gas and run it out. Question does it smell like gas or kerosine? If it smells like gas top it off with fresh gas and run it.

 

[lbhsbz]

If it doesn’t have ethanol in it, I’d run it and just take it easy until you burn most it...

Or, dump it in the truck.

I usually only have 5-10 gallons of questionable fuel...I pour a few gallons in a 5 gallon bucket and set it in the sun...it’s usually gone within an hour so.

 

[BUDMAN]

More than likely you purchased your fuel in Arizona and it has less additives in it than fuel from Ca. I would think you could top off your tank with fresh fuel and you should be good.

 

[monkeyswrench]

I usually mix 5 in with fill ups on work trucks...if it still smells like gas. If it smells like kerosene, tow yards, wrecking yards and such can usually take it.
Here it's easy, find a guy with a waste oil heater.

I kinda doubt he's gonna take a chance on running it in his brand new rebuilt boat motor he spent entire off season building.

One of the tanks is completely full, the other is about 3/4. I DONT want to screw up the NEW engine [emoji16]

if it's brown maybe you should consider flushing those tanks .

 

[X Hoser]

Any Household hazardous waste place will take it. Call the fire department, they will tell you the closest place.

When Flat Top did my service and I had old gas he got rid of it for me for a cost.

So does everyone else

 

[92 cole]

Next time you plan on letting it sit pour a bottle of Sta-bil in each tank. If it looks brown HOW DOES IT SMELL???????????

 

[DRYHEAT]

Might try calling Parker oil I think they recycle fluids.

The guys at OReillys yesterday said to try them.. they also said, if you call the fire Dept, they’ll tell you to leave it in a bucket in an open field and let it evaporate [emoji23]

Get yourself some gas cans and stay warm next winter

Find it hard to believe the fire department would say leave it out in the field in an open container but, you never know things are a little different out here.

I didn’t think smudge pots were designed for gasoline, but what do I know I’m not a farmer.

Put it in your tow vehicle.

No bullshit.. the guy behind the counter told me that, and some guy that was behind me in line agreed with him [emoji2371]

They burn super clean with gas! Plus you can always add some old oil.

I just thought they might be a little volatile with gasoline, but I suppose if mixed with oil it might be OK, I’m pretty sure I could figure out a way to blow myself up though. (there really needs to be a missing tooth redneck LMAO emoji)

 

[Jefftowz]

We put mine in 5 gal buckets with lids and lets the lids loose and it evaporates over time.

 

[dribble]

Top it off and run it.

CARB would shit their pants if they saw that. Good thing you're in AZ.

 

[HALLETT BOY]

Today’s gas loses about 1 point in octane rating per month , plus as it ages , it leaves a residue . In a boat that’s always under a substantial load , that’s not good .

 

[Bobby V]

Yep. That’s what I did this weekend. Gas was about 10 months old. Added 2 gallons and the boat ran great. Used Stabil during the winter.

 

[bajagrom]

I got a few more gallons to go.... Evap since I can’t kill the weeds in the yard because the dog gets the front yard.
It’s not brown but has a dark tan color to it.

 

[mothershipper]

Look up Uncle Rob on youtube for some ideas of what to do with it

 

[renodaytona]

Drained mine into two 55 gallon drums. Now I have about 70 gallons of questionable gas. Definitely not running that on my new motor.

 

[HAVASUSUN]

I just pulled 60 gallons of old fuel out of my boat using an automotive electric fuel pump. Spent $50 on 2 blue 55 gallon barrels from a guy on CL. After transferring the fuel to the barrels, I listed them on CL for free. In the listing I made it clear it was 1 year old gas that had been sitting in my boat. I had a a guy at my house within hours picking them up. Worked out great

Seriously, no one wants to put it here and light it up?

Seattle under seige

Are they out? wife said she got out and is safe at family’s place in eastern WA. Left with key stuff in backpacks. Was told to avoid looking like she was leaving for a period of tine. based on what my wife says, what is being reported by MSM and what is occurring are polar opposites

Put it in 5 gallon jugs and go to a random parking lot and fill up peoples tanks. They will think your a good person just paying it forward

 

[mash on it]

I used to run crap gas like this in the wrecker.
It has two tanks, one with crap fuel, and one with good fuel.
On the highway, cruising, I'd switch to the crap fuel. Thru town, on the good fuel.
We often had gas in diesel U-hauls, sometimes just old fuel out of a truck or car. That 750 Holley would smell like diesel once in a while.

Definitely wouldn't just let it evaporate or store it any longer than needed. Smudge pot would work

Probably get top dollar in Minnesota.

 

[Ladsm]

60 gallons is alot but I keep a 5 gallon can for old gas and use it to help start camp fires.

Watch out putting straight gas in a smudge pot. The vapors will surround the base of the smudge pot and when you go to light it you will be standing in a lake of fire. Happens every year at Glamis.

 

[Kachina26]

Lots of ideas.

 

[28Eliminator]

Sounds like rounding up a 55 gal drum is my best option.

Some waste transfer stations or dumps have hazardous materials disposal

 

[McRib]

Save it for winter. I have a horrible idea and a lighter.

 

[FreeBird236]

You'd think if you built that engine right it could handle a little old gas.







Sorry no good solution, other than hazardous waste.
