Add 2 gallons of 10 year old gas in tank?

Customer gave me a gas can with about 2G of 10yr old gas. Only reason I took it is it’s old style w/proper vent.

so I either dump the gas in my truck tank or put it out to evaporate. Not interested in driving to Municipal place or dumping it in ground.

 

Don’t put in the truck. Guess your gonna wait awhile for it to evaporate.

 

Put it in a mower or something a little less expensive than your truck?

 

Pour it into some foil baking pans and leave in sun to evaporate off. I dislike doing that for a full 2 gallons, but gas that old isnt fit to use in anything.

 

I wouldn't put 10 year old gas in anything, including my mower or weedeater. Definitely not the truck. I can't really think of any options on how/where to get rid of it.

 

Just figured mixed w/full tank of fresh gas would be fine

 

That's what rental cars are good for...

 

Lol, great advice! Or just a big bonfire

 

Parts stores recycle used motor oil. Call 1 of them and see if they'll take gas.

 

If you do put it in with a mostly full tank I'd also add some kind of additive to get rid of water content(Heet)

But I'm with others, use it a mower but also use a correct additive

Nice score on the older gas can though

 

It's better to just burn it (careful, it's explosive) than to let it evaporate as an unburned hydrocarbon.

 

Yes. It’s vented AND has a functioning EZ spout. Score.

 

Donate it to your local Gambler 500.

 

Find the nearest Chinese Privet and pour it out

 

Seafoam and in a full tank it went. Livin on the edge. Will report back in a week.

 

I wouldn't use it in anything- most small engines are waaaay more sensitive to fuel quality than cars or trucks. Don't try and burn it; we don't want to see you on the news or in a fire safety ad. Places that take oil can deal with small amounts of gasoline, but two gallons is probably too much at once.

 

What do you do with your used oil?

 

What did that poor engine ever do to deserve that? lol

 

Most auto parts stores (at least around here) take used oil.

I don't know if they'd take old gasoline though, could always just label it something else lol. I know, I know, but it's still better than letting it evaporate or pouring it out somewhere.
