Ok, the gas is out of the boat. Now, how do you get rid of it (legally)?

Add it to your car's tank as you need it.

It may be a touch stale for that. 4 year old gas (sta-bil'd) in the boat and my car is a bit on the hi-po side (M3).

Maybe find a drum, and give it to a landscaper who's running 2 strokes all day? That might work.

Personally - unless you have some wild exotic power, I'd stabilitze what is in there and then fill it to the BRIM before you take it out for the first time next year.

Never used this but may be worth a try. If gas tests good, run it in the car. Apparently Home Depot carries it.
