Disposing of fuel

Yes burn it during a total fire ban period, very useful suggestions people….

burn it?

either the meth or dilution with fresh fuel suggestions will work…….but make sure you also replace the fuel filter

Make a bonfire with it?

Just dilute it 25% into fresh fuel it’ll be fine.

try lawnmower, chainsaw or outboard engine repairer/suppliers for fuel stabiliser.

thanks damien for the meths suggestion. Might try that first. Rather use the stuff than dispose of it. Tried to find fuel stabilisers in the past, but not much luck.

Dilute it down with fresh fuel.

The Mugga tip doesn’t dispose of old fuel- only oil and paint. Must be someone around town who does it for old aviation fuel and such?

if it is petrol and not diesel, 50 mls of methylated spirits per litre will let you use the fuel and not dispose of it. this is an old trick ive used when dragging cars out of garages and getting them running, and on old non-two stroke mower fuel.

if you are going to store a car for a length of time you can buy petrol stabiliser liquids to make sure the octane rating stays and the fuel is usable for up to 5 years. the same product can be used for generator fuel supplies. im pretty sure there is a diesel version as well. from memory its called ‘stabil’ or something similar.
