Re: [Amc-list] old gas disposal



I know back here that old gas in oil is a big no-no costing the local Advance auto about $10,000 a pop in hazardous waste cleanup fees!
  Least that's what they told me while watching me pour used oil in their tanks to makes sure it is not contaminated.
I really want to build a small Babington ball oil burner so I can just burn off the oil for heat.
