What to do with bad gasoline?

Super nanny would say put it in the naughty chair until it is ready to say it is sorry and then can resume appropriate play.

Ever have one of those nites where you are so tired just need to have background noise to take a nap.

If I said, "BAD Petrol!" I'd expect to hear that from the English Super nanny

Sounds like you had one of those nights...

Old gas...?? I'd mix it with new gas and run it.. etc.

I found a 5g gas can early this year left over from 04/05 hurricane season ( don't know which).. I mixe dit at the rate of 25% old gas to 75% new gas and ran it all out in my farm CUV ( gas powered farm golf cart looking thing ). Fumes smelled just a bit, and maybee an imperceptable power difference.. other'n that.. i used all 5g of it this year with no problems..

In the future, if I have clean dry gas (but just old) I'll probably do that.

Note that this was not bad gas, as in old, but instead fresh highly volatile gasoline, perhaps contaminated. Old gas loses volatility.

Good point. When I used to burn more brush, I tried to mix gas with diesel to slow it it. The burn barrel thing was a time where I didn't.

I just save it and use it for solvent, thinner, etc. Unless it's not too bad. In which case I filter it and mix into my car gas tank a little at a time.
