After finishing the HVDA tranny conversion on my TR6 (loving it so far!) I now
have to get back to the Spitfire differential rebuild I started 3 years ago,
before retirement. I may not pull that off by myself, but at some point I have
to revive the poor engine that I have neglected most of that time (the guilt is
terrible). My question is, what do I do with the 7 or 8 gallons of gas in the
tank?

One, of course, is never run the old gas. Even if it starts, it will varnish
everything in sight to some degree. While you're at it, stick a magnet in the
gas tank to see if it collects a pod of rust.
