What are the tell tales of bad gas? - maxximum_44 - 07-27-2005

Hey guys, I've got two gallons of o'donnell's fuel in a hot pantry. they've been there for over two years! :crazy:
Before I go out and test what should I look for?

2 years in a hot pantry? I would just throw them away, IMO

The O'Donnells would probally be yellow if it were bad. I had a half gallon that changed colors on me.

if it's still sealed gallons I'd say it may be good still, as long as the original seal isn't broken

Tex, I checked all 3 gallons (found another one today) and there where no seals on any of them.

snakebite46, It's yellow as piss.

satoch, Thats some funny chet :bustingup

Mr. Tune, I'll probaly just toss it.

Thanx to all

Yep, o'donells that turn that yellow is now garbage.

just throw a match in each one of them and watch the fireworks. Thats the only good way to get rid of bad gas.
