Fuel Issue... uhh Help!
After my car has been down for 8 months...I go to swap the fuel lines around and find this...

Any idea what I should do with 13 gallons of Orange flavor 93 oc-TANG?!

Is this bad? Or can I run my car with this? I'm at a big loss here.

Looks like a Solo cup and the rest is in his tank?

When I left my car around for 7 months with gasoline in it I just started it right up and drove around carefully for that fuel tank. Once I got fresh gas in there I was good to go.

HAHAH No... this is what I found when I drained the line and then primed the pump... Same color kept coming out.

If it bothers you really the only think you can do it empty it and use it in the lawn mower or something.

There may be a chemical you can add to it to reverse the deterioration that has happened to it but hell if I know what that is.

how does it burn? pour a little on the ground and burn it, BURN BURN BURN BURN BURN FIRE FIRE.... sorry...

I would run it, I just wouldn't drive hard. If it runs like ass drain it out and give it to someone who mows lawns or something.

Well i called Pops and asked him if he wanted it for his mower. Just gotta buy some 5 gallon gas tanks and suck that hoe dry.

What about a new fuel filter... Should I replace mine now?

Basically the fuel varnished, should have put some sta-bil in there,
.
aside from the advertisement, if you want to try, try some b12 chemtool in the tank, basically paint thinner
.
but me personally I would use it in the lawnmower or make some moltolv ****tails and use it on someone you don't like

Looks like some rust got in that stuff. That's my best guess.

Yeah, your fuel system will probably need a cleaning after this.
