Re: Old gas disposal?

Use it up and save $4+ bucks a gallon at the pump:

To recondition gasoline, follow these basic instructions:

   1. Work outdoors away from open flame and sources of heat or sparks. Do not smoke or wear contact lenses while working with gasoline.
   2. Pour the old gasoline into a second container through a funnel lined with a coffee filter or two layers of a thin cloth to remove particles.
   3. When the filter is dry, throw it in the trash.
   4. Mix one part filtered gasoline with five parts new gasoline. You can pour the reconditioned gasoline directly into a tank of new gasoline that is at least three-quarters full.

To remove water from gasoline, follow these steps:

   1. Pour the gasoline into a transparent jug. The water will settle to the bottom of the container, because water is heavier than gasoline.
   2. Carefully pour off the gasoline into a gas can, leaving the water in the jug.
   3. Pour the leftover water into a box lined with plastic and mix with an absorbent material such as sand or "kitty litter". Let the water dry and place the box, plastic, and sand in the trash. Do not pour the water down the sink, storm drain, or on the ground.
