i need old gas pumped out.........
 

can anyone tell me of a mobile type service on long island ,ny. that will come to my house and pump out old gas[ app. 25 gal.] from my 25 ft. formula........

tell your neighbors they'll be pumping that ch!t in there lawnmowers & pick ups faster then a stripper loses her top :drink:

Yup like Running Hot said. I got a small electric pump, hooked it up to my fuel tank and filled up a 5 gallon jug. Filed up my car, then my wifes car then stated to fill up cars in the parking lot. Good day for a lot of folks! :D

If it is bad gas you can have some fun with a BOMB fire. :eek::eek:

Even old gas will work in most lawnmowers, etc. Unless there is water or excessive gunk in it you can probably use it for something (or worst comes to worst, burn it like Audio said). You really don't want a service to come take it out. It is WAY too expensive. They wanted $80 bucks to show up, and $7.XX per gallon to take it out. My friend called them because he was worried about his old gas gunking up his carb, but the final price of taking out all of the old gas would have cost more than replacing the carb with a newly rebuilt carb.

FWIW, we ended up cutting his fuel line and temporarily installing an electric fuel pump that I had laying around. After we were done we put a fuel filter in to splice it back together.

I know someone that was in the bulk gas handling business for most of his career. They always had vast expanses of concrete around them where they worked. He told me once that when he had a small amount of gas he needed to get rid of, such as a 55 gallon drum, he would just tip the drum over on its side, let all the gas run out on the concrete, and it would evaporate & be gone in 10-20 minutes, depending on the temperature, wind, etc.

I'm sure the EPA would frown on that. He's lucky he never got fined. Not everything in gas evaporates. I'm sure he's contaminated a good deal of material.

I had 40 gallons of turpentine in the Monza when I first got it. Scored a 45 gallon drum. Picked up one those super cheap pumps that run off your drill at H/D. Then called the local dump and asked about their hazardous waste days. Pumped it out and ten dropped it off. Pretty painless.

Yet, you condone burning it off, as you stated above. Go figure. Lets face it, its getting more and more difficult to process stale fuel properly, no matter where you are.

Burning it is no different than running it through your car (sans the cadillac converter). Pouring it into the ground is a huge mess that requires extensive and costly excavation to get rid of it.

...get an outboard fuel line with a bulb (no fittings on ends..)...disconnect the fuel line(s) at the tank(s)...feed the hose out the drain plug hole...install fuel line to gas tank fitting...squeeze bulb...watch it syphon...fill gas cans & distribute to friends...

I use an extra holley electric fuel pump we had laying around. You can buy cheap ones from summit racing. They are worth it to have around. Hook up two long hoses to it...and some long wires with big alligator clips on the ends. Put the one end of the hose deep in the fuel tank...hook up the wires to the battery....and get some cans ready...lol.

If you really feel creative...you can hook up a nice switch in the positive wire. :drink:

...less mess without the spark/arc dangers...

my old 4runner burns most old fuel without any problems just add a little 93 and some seafoam and filter it through with some paint strainers.

Whats a "cadillac" converter?
 

Burning raw gas with an open flame into the atmosphere defineately is not EPA approved(since you brought them up). Can you order a cadillac converter on any GM car or truck, or just Cadillac's? Who said anything about pouring gas into the ground? This reminds me of a bit of advice a fellow board member here, freely advertises..."Never argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level & beat you with experience."

Catalytic converter, does that help your infantile mind phuck-tard? Burning gas into the air is a helluva lot better than pouring it onto the ground jackass. You're allegedly a boater, where does ground water end up? Yup, that's right... THE LAKE/OCEAN, where WE boat!

Complain about semantics and be persnickety prick. The bottom line is you were wrong, you're embarrassed, and you're picking on anything you can get your hands on to save face. At the end of the day you're just making yourself look more dumb.

:coolcowboy:

Only on OSO that a simple question about pumping out old gas can turn into a sword fight. Put'em away and zip your flies back up boys.

nice guy :evilb: and next to the Pre school too right ?

Had an old primer bulb, so tried that this year.

%$%##% anti-siphon valve cut that plan short.

The "epa" has destroyed boating given us spotted owls, manitee zones, no wake areas and all the other junk, if they want us driving cars that get 30+ mpg what do you think there feeling of a offshore boats is that gets 1 mpg

or the shop Vac :eek:
