But, If I have the time one day could arrange to get up there to fill a jerry for parts cleaning duties too. If it comes to it, I'll PM you about it, if it's all gone by then .. well done for getting rid of it.

Cool - let me know when you’re free and I’ll see if the other option pans out too. Sort of first in, best dressed as I need to get it gone so I can get the RRC back on the road.[emoji106]

Redhead.

Road trip.

So how do you get rid of it once you’ve used it for parts cleaning....?

Use a magnet!!

Appreciate everyones input - I have someone coming to get it at some stage now.

Cheers.

The guys who collect waste oil will take it BUT it can be expensive . You could try ringing one of the fuel Co's & ask.

Anything like that I use as 'Woof Wood'. :firedevil:

Gotta watch that stale fuel because it can also stuff the tank and other components.
I have seen a fuel tank get a sort of varnish inside it that was impossible to clean out,we had to replace the tank.
So if a vehicle sits for a while I use fuel doctor or something similar to preserve the fuel.

Does the fuel still ignite? See below, WARNING: might get you into the Darwin awards thread
