I have an idea involving a match and the car with the "pimpin 18's" from the other thread.

I guess you could mow a lot of lawns or mix it with a LOT of 2cycle oil and cut down a bunch of trees...
if the gas is in tankers sealed... no, nevermind, the tankers are vented... um. put 25 gallons in 55 gallon tanks, and strap a grenade to it... BOOM!!! spectacular... John

I wouldn't use old gas in any internal combustion engine. Best suggestion so far is to use it as weed killer (but don't tell the EPA).

Hmm....I found a quart of RUG in a container (closed 2 gal fuel can) in my garage that I had used to thin SVO in the summer....so I just poured it in my tank....I then added 5 more gallons of diesel following adding the rug. I doubt it will even notice it.
![]() I don't believe that gas goes completely bad over time. We've left our lawnmower, outside, burried in snow, with a mostly full tank of RUG all winter long, come spring, I prime it a few times, and fire it up, generally starts on the 1st or second pull, lets you know for 15 seconds or so with some blue exhaust, then it clears up and runs great. ![]()

id say use it for removing diesel oil stains off your driveway. Either that or a weed killer.
I would think with the fuel sitting in the car, overtime fuel tanks might get water in them and youll have a potential problem with water in the gasoline.

Anyone ever heard of reconditioning gas? did a search, they all suggest the same thing: Filter it to get out sediment & varnish. Then mix it 1:5 with fresh gas, and all should be fine. Some suggest an octane boost. One site advertised a product similar to Stabil that's supposed to actually restore old gas.
I might experiment. I really dont see how <10% to thin out WVO or BD could hurt much. Then again, driving off a cliff wouldn't hurt my car much.
