Re: Old petrol

I decant and use the old petrol elsewhere (mix with 2-T and use in strimmer)

but
swill out the last half pint and throw it away.

I just did my tank and washed out some black "grit"

I don't know what it was or how it got there but I'm glad to get rid of it.

Dear All ­

Visited my boat this afternoon, all well - no water in bilge, but battery
flat.

It's been suggested that I replace the petrol in the tank for the
outboard,
as petrol denatures over time. Fair enough - but how do you dispose of old
petrol? Put a bit of it in my car from time to time - say 10% per fill?
