Anyone know what to do with old gasoline (other than dumping it somewhere or burning it)? I have probably a little over 5 gal in the T/A that’s two years old. Seems like a waste of 104 octane, but I don’t want to take a chance running it through the engine, so I;m going to empty it out.

Listerine is just aged 104 octane race fuel. Give it another month or two and it should be ready to go!

I actually put air in the tires, put fluid in the transmission, and pulled the spark plugs to crank it over. Which was supposed to happen tonight. But didn’t. So you’re right.
