That makes me wonder where all the gasoline in the tanks of junked or
totally wrecked vehicles ends up. Call a junkyard to ask if they'll tell you
what becomes of all that gasoline. Maybe a friendly one would take it from
you.
Toxic waste dumps would likely charge too much for accepting the old
gas.
Phone your local recycling agency or municipal gov't to see what they
recommend.

Thanks. Yeah, did not seem likely. In that case, what should be done with
the oil gas mixture, I imagine safely drain it at the dump where they
accept
toxic materials. I'd pass it on to someone if I knew anyone! TIA.

Hey, I used to use an old Lawnboy mower from around 88, and finally
this
year have a newer one, about five years old. The old one used an
oil/gas
mixture, but the newer one has separate spots for each. So my question
is
can I still use the oil/gas mixture in the new one, since there is
still
some left to be used? Thanks!

No, do not use it. It will foul your spark plug right quick and may cause
other issues as well.

I worked for this small compainy mowing grass and what not, when the
owner
asked me to stop at the rental store and pick up a brush hog for the day.
I meet him at a job site where there was a 3 acre field that need to look
like lawn at the end of it. He left me with a 2 gallon can of mixed fuel.
He said that it was a rental and the mix fuel won't hurt the machine.
After two tank fulls of mixed gas, the machine backfired, shot fire out
the exhaust and lit the field on fire. Needless to say, I ran my but off
to the truck and called the fire depo. I quit soon after.... ;0P
