Default Which is which?? Tower fuel

I just bought out a guys entire colection and included was a couple cases of fuel. Most is Tower, and a couple others that are quite dusty and I expect old, so I'll thash them, second question will follow.

The Tower Power fuel doesn't say what the oil % or blend is and their site doesn't shead any light on it. A couple of the Gallons are green and the rest are red. I have determend that one of the green ones is no nitro, so again, I'm not to concerned with it. There is a full case of 15% Pink, looks to be quite new, and then there is a 5% and a 10% both pink and again newer looking. Does anyone have a clue what the color difference might indicate, and what Towers lube blends are?

The second question is what is a good way to dispose of a few gallons of fuel that looks to old to use? Pour a gallon in the car each tank full? Not sure what the Oil would do the the cataloic (SP) converter though. 6 oz of Nitro in a 20 gal tank shouldn't make much difference, the methol should just raise the octane a notch or two. ??
