I Have Bad Gas

Post by Steve Simmons »

I have approximately 7 gallons of gasoline, probably about 5 years old. I just drained it from a car that I last saw on the road in August, 2014. It's clean and ready to burn in your tractor, lawnmower, brush clearing or whatever else you can do with smelly old gasoline. Bring a couple 5 gallon gas cans (so I can keep mine) and you can go home with smelly gas.

Too late to this party I'm sure ~ it makes great weed killer, you just have to be careful with it as it's still flammable .

I bet I still have my "Doctor Of Motors" certificate somewheres.....

I do still have some left. I've been mixing it 50/50 with fresh gas and burning it in the tractor. It loves the stuff, probably because it doesn't burn well. Compression is pretty low in that thing.
