Old boat fuel disposal
What do folks do to dispose of old petrol (safely & legally of course)?
If its not too old I take it out of the boat tank and put in the one of my cars where it gets diluted. However when I cleaned out the tank yesterday it looked like there was a couple of litres of water in the tank which I hadn't seen before, so I don't want that near any car.
Detox your home have spots you can drop it off at - occasionally there is one nearby, but always on a Saturday, so not terribly convenient.

It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish

Re: Old boat fuel disposal
super cheap auto has disposal bins for oil and other stuff. You will have to put it into a container with a lid though
