Yes my OH is concerned about the petrol.
Especially having watched a couple of vids!

I'd drain the tank and stick to paraffin or diesel if it will run on

He's looking at emptying the tank on it.
We have paraffin anyway for the greenhouse

that. I bought a second hand Taylor paraffin stove that due to a
misunderstanding by the previous Dutch owner, while he was on a
sailing cruise in Norway, had been filled with terpentine. I had to
replace the burners mainly because he had used dirty fuel too and had
damaged the burners by using the wrong sized prickers. He must have
done it several times as the stove included several damaged spare
burners and two fuel tanks. He had cut the end off one cylindrical
tank and tried to replace the end with a glass window, so that he
could see how much fuel there was in the tank. I solved that problem
by buying a second hand much larger capacity tank.
