Yes, less than a gallon of stale fuel isn't going to be a problem with a
cars petrol tank more than half full. I doubt it would be a problem
almost empty.

(Otherwise I can't think how I'd dispose of it)


If you don't value your eyebrows it burns well. B-) WHUMPFFF!!!

OK, will do. I didn't see any oil filler or dipstick on the top -
possibly there's something accessible from the side/underneath that
I've missed.


Mighht just be a overflow type filler plastic plug low down. Drains tend
to be a square headed plug right on the bottom edge of the engine
casting.
