Gas Tank...?

[GreekRPS13]

im in the process of stipping my car down....and i took the fuel tank out and its got a 1/8 or a 1/4 tank left and idk what to do with it lol any sugestions lol

[MURPHY]

you mean how to get it our or what to do with the fluid? just put the fluid in a container. no need to trash it

[Anto]

well, if you're working on the car for a while, you might want to trash it. It's not worth the amount you have to save it & risk fuel contamination.

If you had say.. a gallon, it would be different.

[idlafie]

It's not a good idea just to trash it. Gasoline is considered "hazardous" waste because of it can contaminate the ground water / drinking water when dumped on the ground along with the fact that it's extremely flammable.

Do a websearch for your local county government's weekend Household Hazardous Roundup day. CAREFULLY pour the gas into a disposable container, (such as a plastic gallon milk container marking it with a black marker "gasoline"), & then take it to the Roundup day. Your local county government will gladly recycle, (or dispose of), your waste in an environmentally safe manner......

Hope this helps...

keep it in a couple jugs and use it to clean stuff. save $$ and its one of the best cleaning products ever.

If you live by a marina, you could put it in the hazard dump station.

Gas works great for cleaning grease off your hands after a hard day's wrenching. Don't you or someone you know have a lawn-mower/weed-whacker/etc.? Put it in a jug and use it in another car, or a friend's car. There is a drain plug on the bottom of the tank, if I recall correctly..

[trsilvias13]

use it in your bucket car. I had very old gasoline sitting in a fuel tank when I got my shell. My friend didnt care about his car and ran it. Nothing bad happen.

id just keep in it one of those spare-gas containers incase of emergencies...or recycle it. or use it to water down your 151.

[cmcdougle]

gasoline melts plastic, so don't put it in a milk container.

I'd make a gnarly fire out of it. . . or use it to wash your hands, except then the gasoline smell doesn't go away for a few days.

I dunno, i'd prolly drive it up to a deserted road in the hills, pour it into a barrell and light it? Please bring camera.
