old fuel disposal?????
 

I have 1/3gallon of old nitro fuel, and don't know what the best way to dispose of it is. Can anyone help?

It makes a great weed killer.

Its makes an even better soak for freeing up old engines with castor frozen components. Just the right quantity too, completely imersing an engine. Seal it up and save for that purpose.

Mix it with new and fly with it.

Hello; Take that fuel and put it in your freezer for a day or so. Get a clean container to ppour into then quickly pour the unfrozen part off. There's a good chance that any contanimants will freeze with the water, which you melt and pour off. Then send the remainder to me, and I get to fly for naybe three weeks for nothing. Old fuel is a common find around here. I usually use up old gas on weeds.

DO NOT mix old fuel that with new unless you know it's still good. Otherwise you could contaminate the new fuel and could render it useless or possibly damage the engine depending what the contamination is.

If you are using less than a gallon of fuel every 4-5 years, you are not flying enough.:)

If you have a oil furnace just dump in the fuel tank, I have a 250 gallon tank and a half gallon of glow fuel won’t make any difference to the furnace and it’s not going to waste.
I also do this when I change the oil in my car after running it through a screen filter.
