Have about gallon and half of very old gas I bought right after Hurricane Sandy. Where can I take to dispose of? I live in Point Pleasant. Called their recycling center, they don't take it. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance

If it does not have water in it , dump it in your vehicle a half
gallon at a time. It will burn mixed with all the new gas.

As long as no water in it, I do the same thing. Let car consume it dilluted in the 24 gallon gas tank

I'd put it with the mower over my car personally. Top off a 5 gallon container with the old stuff and burn it up. Might be my signature (Keansburg Kutter)...but my lawn grows fast in the spring. :D

See you soon out there Al...and anytime on my ride.

how about if you have a gas/oil mixture? I'm not sure if putting it in a car with fuel injectors is a good idea. I have gallons of mixture left over from prevous years.

If it's years old, that would make it tough. Recycling center?:confused:

Last years? Look down one of the local docks and find someone with an older 2 stroke carbed and give it away.
